Let’s Hear it for the Grape
Well…the 2009 Beaujolais Nouveau has hit the shelves and according to my co-host Brian it is really good this year.
We’re gearing up for our party. So far we’ve got about 50 guests that have said they will be there. We’re going fancy this year. Your’s truly dragged out the sterling flatware!
The menu, in part:
Chicken kabobs with a teriyaki glaze, chicken empanadas, cheese tortellinis in alfredo sauce, spinach balls with a curry dipping sauce, meat/cheese/spice stuffed croisants (shaped in a bundt pan), blue cheese biscuits, gorgonzola “loaf” (actually shaped in a spring-form pan), various veggies, mixed nuts and at least three desserts.
And the wine. Oh, yes, the wine. I ordered in two cases. Hopefully that will be enough.
Soooooooooooo…if any of you happen to be in the neighborhood just stop on by. We’ll leave the lights on.

Holy hell. Judging by the spread at that party, you all might reach Chicago by the time you’re done! I’d love to be there. It sounds AMAZING.

I have to try this wine sometime, you always make it sound incredible.

I needa party with you!
Empanadas! I always HAVE been a sucker for the Sp*c food..
The least you can do is pack up the leftovers & ship ‘em by UPS to Tennessee.
