18Jul11

Actually, I lie. This is how I ate in early July when I didn’t want to study. Duck confit, brussels sprouts, cornbread (it was the 4th of July, I think, and I had a hankering for cornbread), and a nice Bordeaux. Oh yum. Now that it’s mid-July and there are just seven (7?!) short days […]

A Traipse Through Wine Country

28Dec09

I love wine country, and when my friend offered to drive a few of us up to Napa and Sonoma because his girlfriend needed to pick up a few cases of wine, I eagerly accepted. Napa Valley! Sonoma! We started off in Sonoma’s Hanzell Vineyards (we got a bit lost in the process), and ended […]
