Taste BC 2012

Comments 101 by Rebecca Bollwitt

This time of year is supposedly the most depressing but with the Cupcake Throwdown, Hot Chocolate Festival, Dine Out Vancouver and the Bite of White Rock, all the goodness going into our bellies is sure to cheer us up. An even better way to get rid of the winer blues is to attend a fabulous event like Liberty Wine Merchants’ Taste BC that supports the BC Children’s Hospital Oak Tree Clinic.
