Why You Need to Celebrate the Little Things

5 Ways to Toast to Everyday Moments

Are all the things you have to do weighing on you? Take a minute to find a moment of joy in any day, and then celebrate it. Find out how below.

Life doesn’t often serve up milestones complete with applause (don’t you wish it would?). But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to celebrate. The everyday moments—the ones that often slip by unnoticed—are filled with reasons to raise a glass. From tackling laundry to savoring a quiet evening, the little victories make life worth toasting. Here’s your call to action: Celebrate the small moments that brighten your day.

Clinking Glasses

Because when you think about celebrating, what comes to mind? Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, or a long-awaited promotion? Such moments deserve the spotlight. But everyday wins are toast-worthy too – especially with a glass of Washington wine.

How to Do It

Here are 5 ways to celebrate perfectly ordinary moments that make life what it is. Because let’s face it—the laundry will never fold itself, but you can always reward yourself for tackling it.

1. The Little Wins

Maybe it’s finally getting through your inbox. Or you remembered to water your plants before they entered crisis mode. These small triumphs deserve recognition. Take a quiet moment with a smooth Merlot to admire your plants.

2. Turning Ordinary into Extraordinary

Who says you need a big event to enjoy an exceptional bottle of wine? Washington wines are versatile and approachable, transforming an ordinary Tuesday dinner into something memorable. Picture a bowl of spaghetti paired with a juicy Zinfandel, or takeout Thai food complemented by a citrusy Riesling. Suddenly, your midweek meal feels like an occasion. Create a “just because” dinner tradition. Once a month (or week!), pick a bottle and raise a glass to celebrate nothing in particular—or everything at once.

3. Cheers to the Almost-Wins

Got halfway through your to-do list? Attempted to organize the garage but got distracted by old photo albums? Sometimes effort deserves its own reward. Grab a bold Malbec—rich, indulgent, and perfect for toasting to progress over perfection. And if the photo albums turn into a digitization project for the holidays? Those memories make it all worth it.

4. Sharing the Wins

Some celebrations are better with company, even if it’s just a casual gathering with your favorite people. Open a bottle (or two) of sparkling rosé and share your wins—big or small. The bubbles are made for the laughter that comes when friends gather to celebrate everything and nothing. What’s important is being together.

5. Everyday Wins, Everyday Wines

You can enjoy a crisp Sauvignon Blanc after mowing the lawn. Or, choose a bold Cab to drink while bingeing an over-the-top docudrama series. There’s always a bottle (or glass) for any occasion.

So, what are you waiting for? The next time you pour a glass, don’t save it for a “big moment.” Drink it to celebrate the here and now. Cheers to you, cheers to life, and cheers to finding joy every day.
