American Business Women’s Day is celebrated on Sept. 22. And there’s a lot to celebrate, as the number of women business owners has increased greatly in recent years. If you are one of these owners, or thinking about becoming one, you’ll have much to think about when running your business, but there’s also an area you can’t ignore – your own retirement plan.

Fortunately, when choosing a plan, you’ve got some attractive choices, including an owner-only 401(k), a SEP IRA, a SIMPLE IRA and a solo defined benefit plan. These plans are fairly easy to establish and maintain, and are typically inexpensive to administer. Furthermore, they usually offer tax-deductible contributions, tax-deferred earnings growth and a wide choice of investments.

Before opening any of these plans, you’ll want to consult with your tax advisor on the tax issues and a financial professional on the investment aspects. But don’t wait too long. You will need to work hard to keep your business thriving – so choose a retirement plan that works just as hard for you.

WHAT IS A WALKABOUT?

The South Park Walkabout is a quarterly fun-filled evening festival that showcases all the unique and independent businesses within South Park. Enjoy complimentary treats, live entertainment and special offers.

WHERE IS THE WALKABOUT?

The Walkabout highlights both the south and north end of the South Park business district. The north end starts at Kalmia and 30th St. and extends south to Beech Street. A few ways to get to South Park

• Take 5 South to 94 East to the 28th S
  treet exit. Turn right on 28th and then right on Beech Street
• Take 5 North to the Pershing Drive exit. Turn right on 26th Street. Head up the hill and make a left on A Street. Another left on 28th Street and a final right on Beech Street.
• Take 805 South or North to 94 West and exit on 28th Street. Turn right onto 28th Street and right onto Beech Street.
• The 30th Street & Beech Street intersection is the south end of South Park. If you turn left on 30th and head north you can easily access Grape Street and Juniper Street, where businesses of South Park are clustered. This stretch is roughly 10 blocks and totally walkable or bikeable for those who prefer, though it gets a little hilly when heading north.

Well here we are… welcome to 2017 everyone! We’re back for another year of straight chillin’ at your friendly neighborhood wine bar.  Normal programming starts up again with the first wine club release of 2017. Join us tonight the 9th from 6:30 – 8:30 for bites, sips and good vibes. Per usual, the tasting is $5 for members and $15 for the general public. Katie has picked out some winners and we’re excited to share with you!

Speaking of Katie, January 2017 marks the first in her series of wine 101 classes.  Join her Tuesday January 17th to taste your way through 6 wines that exhibit “tipicity” for their grape or region. She’ll demystify wine terms and discuss how to identify a good bottle of wine without breaking the bank. This class will make you feel at ease next time it’s your turn to pick the bottle! Tickets are $40 — buy them HERE.

Lastly, thanks for a great 2016.  We’re excited to cheers and grow with you in 2017.

XOXO,

The Rose

As part of our Sunday Funday Campaign, we’ll be showing movies in the Sidebar on Sunday Evenings. We’re starting the series off with a soft launch of Halloween themed movies, this Sunday, the 9th: bring a lawn chair or snag a comfy seat on the setée. Buy a bottle, eat some popcorn and call it an evening! Movies will start at 6:30.

Come and be scared with us!

Happy Summer y’all!

We’ve got some fun events coming up for you.  First off, Yoga-Mosa Returns!  Saturday June 25th starting at 9:45 am.  Join the Lovely Jules for an hour yoga sesh and then hydrate with anti-oxidant-rich mimosas! Buy your tickets HERE.

Then, Monday the 27th we’ll be welcoming Romina of Old World Wines to taste us on four wines from Hungary and Greece.  Guaranteed, very few of us will be able to pronounce the name of the grapes correctly, but they sure are fun to drink and it’s fascinating to learn their History. Do as Plato did and drink Agiortiko! $16  ($5 for wine club members) for the tasting and themed snacks.  Tickets available at the door, we’ll see you there 🙂

Then Tuesday the 28th, Art with Rachel returns!  Paint yourself a masterpiece like the one above.  $25 for the class and it’s No-Corkage Tuesday so you can grab a bottle and paint your heart out! Sign up for the class here!

Also, don’t forget to join us this week for BAR WEEK.  We’re offering half off glasses of local wines and $3 guajillo pork empanadas. #eatlocal.

Finally (for now) Walkabout returns July 8th.  You know, keep it on your radar.

Look out for more updates and we’ll see you soon!

Per usual, complimentary bites will abound. So, join the club and the fun: we’ll see you there 🙂 (Read more about the perks of memership and sign yourself up HERE.)

Next up is the South Park Walkabout! March 19th from 6 – 10 PM, the streets of South Park will come alive with the sounds and smells of small business! We, here at The Rose, will be offering 20% off local bottles of wines to-go and, per usual, be slinging (limited amounts of) empanadas on the sidewalk (minus empanadita, our trusty empanada cart, which was stolen during business hours!)

Also on the 19th (in the morning) we are excited to host Modern Craft Camp + Four Things Paper in the sidebar for their Modern Calligraphy 101 and 102 classes.  This one is going to be a lot of fun so hurry up and reserve your spot before the class sells out!

Lastly, we wanted to let you know that, thanks to your support, The Rose has been noticed by San Diego Magazine as one of the top brunch and date-night spots in San Diego!  Woot Woot! Thanks for yelping, enjoying and telling your friends.  We  you :))

That’s it for now.  Look forward to information on the next yoga-mosa, Easter brunch and a four course dinner from the canyon slated for early April.

My holiday season started Thanksgiving week and it didn’t slow down from there.  You can read about my adventures at the blog here.  Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to take a deep breath and prepare for a brand new year.  Taxes are just around the corner, we are electing a new president, and the much talked about El Niño is finally here for much needed rain. For those of you who succeeded with a handmade holiday in 2015, Congratulations!  It was so great to see so many students in November and December learning how to sew for the first time. And for those of you who have “learning how to sew” as your new year’s resolution, we have our class schedule updated here and look forward to seeing you in the studio!
