Sarah of “What’s up with ELM” (and also the owner of ELM) wrote this article about her cool day at the snowshoe event with the ELM members. ELM (Equilibrium Lifestyle Management) is (first, a really cool idea) “a fitness and lifestyle management group based in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, BC. [whose] mission is to assist you in achieving your vision of living a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.”
Back to the mulled wine in the hot tub…
After a day of showshoeing at Forbidden Plateau, the members of ELM enjoyed a nice dinner together and had mulled wine in the hot tub. This definitely goes into the gluhwein moments list - and I think I will add it to wine events as well.
I know most of our readers are from the US but check out ELM. It seems to be a great group to bring out your inner courage and zest.

I think Mike really is living An International Life as well as writing it.
Gluhwein being enjoyed by Melinda on the Riggi in Switzerland.
Thanks to Mike and Melinda for their gluhwein moment.

No other words are necessary to underline the greatness of gluhwein. It is undeniably hard to resist. Muffles might have given us our favorite quote of 2008.
I don’t drink alcohol, but I love gluhwein.
That says so much.
Thanks, Mulffles.

I thought this would be an appropriate first post in our new section called “Gluhwein Moments” since Tina at Carrots and Cake just had her first glass of mulled wine.
I had never tried mulled wine so before ordering, I asked our waitress for a description– mulled wine is basically steamed red wine with cloves and cinnamon and a slice of orange. Sounded delicious to me, and it was!
“Gluhwein Moments” is as simple as it sounds - a place to post the many special moments had around gluhwein / mulled wine. We see hundreds of articles where people are experiencing gluhwein in a way that you don’t see with other drinks - not even with beer. It’s like gluhwein can help make a moment - whether at a Christmas market, relaxing with friends, at the base of the ski slopes, or out to see a band on a “freezing” night.
Here’s to Tina night and getting things started off with mulled wine.
