January: Dinner and Cheeses

Jaarlsberg- United States
Pt. Reyes Blue Cheese


Lamb chops
Dino kale
New potatoes

New Belgium Abbey Ale and and New Belgium 2 Below

The cheese was very good, although these were Whole Foods "singles" and were super cheap. I obviously liked the blue the best. The 2 Below went well with the cheese.

The lamb was grilled with mint and thyme and served with kale in a red pepper sherry vingarette. The new potatoes were roasted with garlic and olive oil.

Excellent dinner.

November 21: 365 Nominee Chardonnay


Tonight we had a really nice dinner; just a simple salad, roasted chicken and some sweet potatoes. I got a chardonnay to go with it and overall I am impressed with Whole Food's cheapskate wine. This bottle was only $6 but was quite enjoyable. Not great, or life-changing, but went well with the nice dinner.
