Back-to-School Survival

Back-to-Wine…err…School Time!

Whether you’re a Mom, or teacher, or know any Moms, or teachers (so that’s EVERYONE)—back-to-school stuff is stressful. And it’s nothing like the ads you see on TV with carts loaded, surrounded by contented kids, and everyone breezing through check-outs with no lines. So we thought we’d turn “Back-to-School” into “Back-to-Wine” time—with a little light relief and wine-time tips to help get you through…

• The new school year can mean new friends and bigger carpool groups to share the load. Tempt other parents over for a Butter happy hour. Sip on creamy-licious chardonnay and get crazy organized with this carpool scheduler made by parents for parents. Butter makes even carpool scheduling better!

• Stocking up for school and teacher supplies, treat your wine supply the same way. There’s no better time to get that “Buy 6 bottles” discount, check out your nearest Butter and JaM Cab stores—we’re in a ton of new stores this Fall!

• Plan regular date nights, movie nights, no-grading nights. Kids and classroom schedules are all well and good…follow your own advice and make one week night all about you…#winewednesday? These 50 easy steps to scheduling date night made us howl. Hint…sip and read!

• Don’t panic over shorter days, make your evening routine work for you: clothes picked out; gym shoes by the door; lunches made. And the best part? Shorter days means wine o’clock earlier… “Yes, yes it does!” As you pour another glass of that berry-licious JaM Cab!
