Not So Easy Sunday

This weekend we decieded to go do some Wine Tasting on the local wine trail. Our friend Peter had just fixed up his Vintage Bentley so off we went in style.




F-No has really stepped it up with the quality of wine in the region. Mariposa was defintiely my favorite - I like every single wine we tried there - one, the Cru label Pinot Noir, gave any wine I had ever tried in Napa a run for their money. Chateau Lasgoity (pronounced Las-Coy-Tea) also had some great wines - one of which was a 5$ magnum of white zin (Zin Rose) that might have been the best I've ever had. Seriously! Both Matt and his brother bought one.

We then had a fabulous dinner at a place downtown called Veni Vidi Vici. SUPER under-rated. As you can tell, I hated my dinner. It was awful.


Mushroom Ravioli with Sausage in a balsamic-cream sauce. I am now on a mission to re-create the sauce ASAP.

We also thought it was a great idea, since you know, it was SUNDAY, to drink Martini's and wine like it was nobody's business.


That's Matt's brother, Adam. He's single and looking, ladies! After a couple of those bad boys, I was definitely hurting on Monday morning. Maybe because right before we left the restaurant I looked like this:


My sister told the waiter I knit my sweater. I didn't. I bought it for $14 at Nordstrom Rack. But I went along with it anyways.

GOOD TIMES!
