Make My Day Smoked Salmon From Den Thank You!

My brother-in-law Den sent me some yummy smoked salmon for Christmas.

Small batch smoked is like small batch good quality whiskey!

Here it is with on whole wheat mini bagels and cream cheese (on my favorite Skyline chili plate from my brother Sam).  The word divine is appropriate.

Add this excellent wine suggested to me by my friend Mary and you have the perfect late night snack.   The wine is wonderful, smooth and dry with a lovely blueberry finish.

There are two more boxes of smoked salmon, guess I will have to go buy more wine!

Thank you Den for the perfect “make my day” late night snack!

Today’s Extreme Dessert

My daughter Haley and I stopped in for a glass of wine at this wonderful winery in Arvada, Colorado.  We tried several different wines passing glasses back and forth 🙂

Silver Vines Winery

Not only was the staff extremely friendly, the other patrons were chatty and helpful.  We had a blast.

Brothers Jeff and Daniel Chayer are the owners.  Jeff is the winemaker and Daniel is the general manager.

They know their business and who their customers are:

Who doesn’t love chocolate and red wine?  Put them together and the brothers Chayer have a winner!

Today’s Extreme Dessert?  The Chocolate Delight which was delightfully yummy combining these two favorites, chocolate and Zinfandel.

Check out their wine club, an awesome value, I’m going to be able pick up my wine in person, yay just down the street!

Paint and Vino!

 

 

A group of us got together for a painting class with wine. This was our example.

 

Yikes!  That’s not the wine, that’s the paintbrush glass!

 

 We felt very important assembling our pallets of acrylic paints .

 

And off we go ….

 

 

 

We really were all painting the same picture.

 It was amazing to see how everybody’s paintings went off in different directions.
This one is mine😓😂

It was great fun!
