Glory and a gift basket for the winner.
6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, February 20
Carr Winery, 414 N. Salsipuedes St., Santa Barbara
Help us get a headcount for the party: RSVP on Facebook.

My new advice column, Tough Love, launched today in the national news magazine TheWeek.com. I’d love for you to check it out!
This week I tackle Herpes II and the meaning of “sexy-ugly” (dear Abby I ain’t) — but I need your help for future columns.
Send me your questions on dating dilemmas, sibling snarls, workplace woes and every juicy quandary in between. I’ll be your sensible, straight-talking and occasionally snarky coach and confidant. No names are published! So jot down your conundrum and email it to toughlove@theweek.com.
