The only heavy lifting this Labor Day weekend should be a glass of wine

Why exert yourself? It’s Labor Day weekend. The only exercise you should get is lifting a glass with just a smidge of fermented grape juice in it to your lips. The number of repetitions is up to you, although I advise moderation, or else you might pull a muscle. If you need to warm up with a few calisthenics first, try swirling the glass before lifting it. And don’t forget the cool-down period.

Thanks go out to the Dayton-based listserv that compiles this wine tastings and events list, which is, truly, Labor.

Enjoy!
