Saturday – Joe was up early to meet our brother-in-law, Frank. They were meeting to go to a local vineyard to purchase grape juices to make wine! Many vineyards sell grapes juice at the time of harvest. These juices are pressed from their grapes and not treated with preservatives – making homemade wine easy as pie!

Joe chose Cabernet and Merlot – a change from last year. In a few weeks, we’ll have wine that will last us an entire year, all for approximately $8 per gallon!

I worked from home and enjoyed a nice, but cooler evening – Remi and Tisha don’t seem to mind…

GETTING TO KNOW ME

As a full time REALTOR in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties in NEW YORK – and Fairfield and parts of Litchfield counties in CONNECTICUT , I am very pleased to have the opportunity to share my passions on REAL ESTATE, FAMILY, PETS, anything and everything in and around a HOME – including COOKING, MOVIES, MUSIC and more!

I have been married for 25+ years to my wonderful husband Joe. We have 5 children – Melissa, David, Amanda, Sara and Jonathan. After waiting anxiously – for almost 17 years, being home with my kids for 10 and a Nursery school teacher for 7 years – I FINALLY became a Licensed Realtor – first in Connecticut - where my family and I live – and then in New York – where my office, Century 21 V.J.F. Realty is located.

I was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, New York. My parents, who came to the US from Portugal, were extremely hard working – with even stronger ethics on being good to everyone – everywhere – period! “Faz bem, nao olhes a quem.” This has been instilled in me all my life, which has made me the mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and the REALTOR I am today. Thank You Ma and Papa.
