A huge CONGRATS to SHougham AND Cheryl Figures who both posted comment entries via the HorseGirlTV Blog page!

This was SHougham’s comment, “My favorite HorseGirlTV episode was ‘Basic grooming- Tips everyone should know’ https://blog.horsegirltv.com/?p=538 because it gave some really useful tips to help with grooming and as I own a grey and white paint gelding I need all the help keeping him clean that I can get!” AND this was Cheryl Figures’ comment, “Picking just one HorseGirlTV episode to be a fav is like choosing a favorite child. Turning Challenging horses in to willing partners https://blog.horsegirltv.com/?p=3181 was very helpful since that is where I am with my rescue mare who is very challenging; I’m buying her book for my trainer. Then since Musical freestyle is my passion I’d have say Riding to Music with Equichord https://blog.horsegirltv.com/?p=921 is another top pick. But I truly Love all your diverse, educating and enjoyable episodes. They help satisfy my desire to be at the barn when I can’t and keeps me sane throughout a boring day at the office. Thank you.”

This was Micheala’s comment, “I cannot say that I have a favorite episode. I have been watching HorseGirlTV since the first episode. One of the most memorable episodes would have to be the F.I.T.S episode. I love the breeches. I do not own a pair, but I love the concept. As a rider, I hate having the seam of the pants between my legs. I love the idea of the individual butt panels, the ab net, and the stretchy fabric. Thank you so much for the informational episodes!!

Firesteed Pinot Noir Oregon Wine Review (Under $15)

December 13, 2011

Following the tradition of equine related vineyards, here’s another uncomplicated wine from the Pacific Northwest. Oregon is fast becoming known for its brilliant Pinot Noirs and the properly paired Firesteed, while not a brilliant Pinot, certainly serves up a fair offering to this reputation.

Be aware, that is an extremely light Pinot! I suggest letting it breath for at least 15 minutes and note it pours very thin but don’t let that steer you away as its uncomplication seems to be its strength.

I’d pair this with something tangy like Indian food, BBQ or anything with a little zest to spice it up. It’s easy to drink without a meal yet I prefer going solo on wines with a little more body than this offers.

Firesteed chose to start with varietals, not because they had vineyards full of ripe grapes, but because they believed they would rapidly gain a following with the wine-buying public. These are wonderful food wines, with bright fruit flavors and low tannins.

My recommendation… ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

Technical Data
Appellation: Oregon State
Alcohol: 12.7%
PH: 3.73

Winemaker notes:
“Garnet in color with aromas of raspberries, cedar, leather and exotic spices, the wine’s berry and cherry flavors are framed by soft tannins and continue throughout its on the lingering finish. Grapes for this wine, as in previous years, were sourced from throughout the Willamette, Umpqua, Rogue and Walla Walla Valleys, creating a truly Oregon blend.”

Recommended pairings:
Texas-style spicy BBQ, Filet mignon w/ garlic roasted lemon potatoes, spicy curries.

Request it from your favorite local wine shop or you can find 2009 Firesteed Pinot Noir 750 ml online for $14.99 plus shipping. Tell them you found Firesteed from Angelea at HorseGirlTV!

Taupe Is The New Black!

December 9, 2011

Okey so maybe taupe is not the Prêt-à-Porter Fashion Week color of choice this year but after a little research, I think taupe could be the new black! This is at least where we’re talking about Taupe FITS Wind Pro Breech and Wind Pro Stud Jacket are concerned. My new winter wear arrived this week and just in time for a drop in temps AND with the standard winter riding garments as black and dull as most winter backgrounds it was an uplifting sight.

We should first establish why taupe is kewl… It’s subtle and chic and matches heaps of other colors.

What goes with taupe?..

Black
Okey so black is so kewl because it also goes with everything. It’s stark and you’ll stand out. It’s figure flattering especially if you pair it with black up top and taupe down below. I don’t know how, but I don’t have a solid black riding shirt to speak of in short or long sleeves so this one was out for me with my new fab set.

White
White is kewl because it keeps you cool yet in the winter on the eastern shores on NC that’s not a huge issue. While I’m totally looking forward to donning my FITS White Seersucker (hopefully in the competition sandbox as well) down in Florida this winter it’s not my top pick for training this time of year when mud seems to mulitply no matter how clean you keep things.

Denim
Ding! Lightbulb! Reaching beyond my new outfit I can pair this most awesome FITS Stud jacket in taupe with my FITS Laura Denim Breeches AND what a fabulous combo to wear into town for lunch, the market then back home in time to feed all the while a stylish little diva! Go one step further, and no I don’t have one, but a denim shirt with this combo would be completely rocking!

Colors
So we’ve established taupe is neurtal and anything goes with it but why not, especially if it’s your winter wear, add a bright color OR TWO to the combo? This comes to my long, draw out and mostly frivilous decision that I narrowed down to a bright turqoise or a bright hot pink to wear with my new FITS Wind Pro breeches and the matching Stud jacket for today’s training. It was hot pink today so tomorrow’s training will be the bright turquoise.

Yes, this isn’t my normal fare and I’m not sure why I got so incredibly excited when the Wind Pro Stud jacket arrived last night but I am a girl and doesn’t that entitle me to focus on fashion, colors and what I’m going to train in ever-so-often? I will pass along tho that the time I spent thinking about what direction I would take my Friday training and reflecting on this past week’s training achievements did FAR out weigh the fashion conundrum so my head is in the right place. 🙂

14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon Washington Wine Review (Under $15)

December 4, 2011

Having lived in and still in love with the Pacific Northwest and Spain, I’m partial to wines from these areas and this little wine is a gem for the price! It’s a must try for cab enthusiasts who value supple tannins with smooth tannins.

Gentle to the pallet, it can either be enjoyed with a meal or is talented enough to have a go it on its own!

Inhale deep then take a sip and think flavors of allspice, cherries and oak while letting it sit in your mouth. It has a very mild-mannered smell, velvety with no after taste.

14 Hands celebrates the spirit of Washington State wild horses (actually ponies) and their rich and unique history. The vineyards are set in the hills near the Columbia river and the terrain that gave these ponies endurance and spirit now feeds the wines of 14 Hands vineyards! This is definitely an easily drinkable, conversation piece wine!

My recommendation… ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Technical Data
Blend: Predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and other select red varieties
Appellation: Washington State
Alcohol: 13.5%
Acidity: 0.52g/100ml
PH: 3.82

Winemaker suggestions:
“14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon features aromas of red currants and raspberries with subtle hints of spice. Spiced cherry & plum flavors are joined by notes of cocoa and complemented by fine, velvety tannins.”

Recommended pairings:
Tomato-basil bruschetta, eggplant parmesan, herb crusted prime rib, grilled beef steak, hearty venison stew.

Request it from your favorite local wine shop or you can find 14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon online for $12 plus shipping. Tell them you found 14 Hands from Angelea at HorseGirlTV!
