Wine by the Mountain

Wine by the Mountain

I have betrayed you! I have been behind on posting. The next few days though I will feature some wines we enjoyed. Here are some photos from Phelps Creek vineyards where we partook in a tasting and drank a bottle of Pinot in the mountain’s shadow in Oregon.

The Wine of a Procrastinator

Posted on

Hello All!

I have been behind posting and I apologize. The reason why? Cookie March Madness! Every week in March my coworkers and I have brought in cookies. Each week, one of us gets the cookie crown (not an actual crown made of cookies…but you get the idea). This has left me exhausted of sweets and gluttony in general. As consolation, here are the cookies I made with recipes.

From the wonderful Smitten Kitchen. Don’t overbake them like I did! Woops! Would go with a Reisling.

I am soon going to Seattle so expect plenty of foody alcohol fun stuff! I will do a pairing this week. I swear.
