Since we knew there would be so many people tied up with friends or holiday travel we decided to just have a simple “Red Wine” theme this month. I was very pleased to taste several Bordeaux blends with a lot of character and depth. As always, the food was fantastic and a very nice reprieve from the Thanksgiving overload. We hope everyone has a safe and special holiday season and look forward to seeing you again in January!
Here is the food and wine lineup:
- Old-Fashioned Ham with Brown Sugar and Mustard Glaze (Chef Candy did her special ham but I don't have her secret recipe; however, this recipe got good reviews)
- Italian Macaroni and Cheese
- Curried Couscous Salad with Dried Sweet Cranberries
- Crab Meat & Celery Deviled Eggs
- Pumpkin Bread Pudding
