25th Annual Wine & Food Fest at Roberson Museum 🍷 Binghamton, NY vlog on YouTube

Last Thursday evening, the SO and I went to the 25th Annual Wine & Food Fest at Roberson Museum in Binghamton, NY.

It was our second year going to this event together (I’m thinking about making it a tradition), and it was a wonderful (and chaotic) evening filled with food, wine, and other alcohols at my favorite local museum.

Anthracite silver Coach loafers and mushroom socks — felt appropriate for the event.

I wore my shiny silver Coach “disco loafers”, fun mushroom socks, and green Kate Spade Deco quilted chain flap bag in celebration of spring. (I still have to find tall-girl-friendly tights though! OMG that part was so painful!)

I love the Wine & Food Fest because you get to try so many different things all at once — and you’re only limited by your ability to carry it.

It was obvious to us that many patrons go every year, and some even have wine cork necklaces with a little ‘basket’ to hold their wine glasses while eating at the same time. We can’t help but smile when we see them, because they’re both funny and clever simultaneously.

I may have to invent a similar contraption.

These party crashers got a free meal.

At one point, a pair of mallard ducks flew into the courtyard to join the festivities. These were clearly city ducks, with no fear of humans, or loud music, and they crash events like this all the time.

They ate well, too. And may have had the best night out of all of us.

If you’re local, this one’s worth getting tickets for. 🍷✨️
