Cheese and Wine

We had a very small wine and cheese gathering last night. I've always wanted to do this. You know, spend tons of money on cheese and finger foods and pretend to be adults. We spent the night stuffing our faces with the yummy goodness and plowing through 7 bottles of wine. I am feeling it today let me tell you. Sweet jesus my head hurts. Anyways, here are some pics.








The cheese was so good! We also had salami, fruits, figs, dates, baked brie on little breads, baked goat topped with this yummy spread Cat made, chocolate, baked pears stuffed with goat cheese and wrapped in prosciutto. Billy brought the BEST goat cheese ever. We would spread it on a piece of salami, put a basil leaf in it, roll it and then moan at how good it tasted.
Anyways, the night was fun. We also attempted to do chin-ups and I video taped it. I also made everyone watch my Kriss Kross vhs tapes....I was really drunk at that point.
Here's to cheese, wine and great friends!

I like food, food is good

I love taking pictures of my food. I'm one of those people. I get SO excited to have a good bite. To quote my aunt Dianne "I could cry over a good steak". I start talking about what we are going to have for dinner when I'm eating breakfast. I also complain a lot afterwards about how I feel bloated, gross, fat, I'm never eating again.. but hey, it's all worth it when the moment of actually eating is almost sacred. I love food. Seriously.
So here are some pics. I have a lot more but would have to look for them. I'm talking almost 5 years of California goodness I've been snapping at here and there. I make a big deal about anything involving food.
Here are some fairly recent ones. The salad I made the other day, and continue to make almost every night. Cat's mom and sister came to visit and her mom made us a Korean feast. The stuffed chicken breast wrapped in prociutto that cat made.Pork chops. And of course my personal favorite, my good friend Beth's bacon wrapped green beans I stuffed my face with when I went home to Illinois for christmas. YUM!!!

Orange jicama sliced almonds kalamata olives yum!
