Yeah, well first of all, the booze did floweth last night, and I only marginally remember taking this photo and posting it at 2:21 am. Here is what led to my Sunday demise.
Appetizers:
Roasted tomato Israeli couscous, home smoked salmon, chorizo and cheese, and homemade bread.
Main stuff:
Thomas Keller's chicken dumpling soup and his asparagus with tomato bacon stew. Also bucatini with rabbit ragu. I did a lot of stuff that I could prepare the day ahead or earlier in the day and just reheat.
Wines (in no order) mostly from Walla Walla:
* Rollat Ardenvoir
* Rollat Rose
* Caderetta SBS
* Tamarack Seven Hills Reserve
* Tensely Colson Canyon
* Forgeron Late Harvest Riesling
* Rotie Southern Rhone Blend
* Forgeron Anvil Cab Sauv
* Buty Semillon white blend
* Charles Smith Viognier
* Va Piano Estate Merlot
* Va Piano Gonzaga Cab Sauv
Spirits:
* North Dakota and Ukrainian moonshine, and Kaufmann vodka.
Do the math, six people, one of which was a DD and my wife is pregnant.
