Where did the month of January go? It doesn’t feel like it’s almost over. Not that I am complaining that it’s almost over since it was pretty much cold, gray and dark here most of the month. Did I say it was cold? It is funny how winters in the Midwest sort of make you think spring is not that far away, until the realization sets in, that spring doesn’t really, really, happen until sometime in May. And that’s if, the big if, we are lucky.
I’m excited about our dinner on Thursday the 11th right before Valentines weekend. We are teaming up with Vranken-Pommery and our good friend Annisa, to do a reception and four course dinner with some fantastic bubbly. I have to say that champagne is definitely one of my favorite drinks and I have always loved to cook foods to pair with champagne. It’s not really that hard since I don’t think that too many things don’t go with sparkling. Cereal comes to mind immediately while I ponder that. I’m at a loss now.
