Going to a friend's house for manicotti. Bringing a relatively inexpensive ($20) bottle of Amarone, purchased at Trader Joe's. The vintner's name is Pasqua.
Had a small holiday gathering with some good friends last night.
Appetizers were Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese Bruschetta served with Champagne
Main course was grilled crusted 2" thick cut Lamb Chops (Costco) with herbs de provence.
Oven Roasted Tri Color Fingerling Potatoes
Field Green salad blend with a balsamic vinaigrette.
Meal was paired with a nice Syrah and a Rhone red blend (GSM)
Desert was Key Lime Pie with a little drizzle of Raspberry Rhubarb syrup on top and Coffee.

Mike: dinner looks and sounds amazing. Is that an herbed goat cheese with the salmon? Anything else about that appetizer you can share?
Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese Bruschetta
How about the recipe! This was a HUGE hit and it was so easy to prepare. Almost could put this recipe in the "3 Ingredient Cook Book"
It was really good.
Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese Bruschetta
Yield: 4-6 servings
INGREDIENTS:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 ounces goat cheese, softened
1 clove of garlic
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
salt and pepper to taste
12 slices of baguette
softened butter
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the cream cheese, goat cheese, garlic and chives. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven or toaster oven to 400 degrees. Lightly butter one side of the pieces of baguette and arrange butter side down on a baking sheet. Bake the baguette until lightly toasted, about 5-7 minutes. You can also grill the bread, just keep your eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
3. Allow the bread to cool slightly. Slather on a layer of the goat cheese spread and top with smoked salmon and garnish with chives.

Friends, here is the maiden thread of one of my deepest passions - pairing food with wine, a romance that is still better than Twilight! How they have gone together for so long, I love it! As such, these are only my opinions (and everyone is entitled to their wrong opinion) With that said, I hope this serves to inspire any who read it to take adventurous risks and enjoy the power of wine accompanied meals! Should you care for a recipe of something you see here - please just ask, I'll be glad to provide one!
My friends, Enjoy!
~I love cooking with wine....sometimes I even add the food!~
Tonight will be:
Tomato-Basil Bruschetta (served with 2011 Pinot Grigio, followed by:
Home-made Chicken Koz Parmegeana with herbed spaghetti and zesty garlic bread (served with 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon), finally:
Home-made strawberry shortcake with Koz-zinfandel glaze over vanilla ice-cream (served with 2012 Riesling).

Well, tonight I made this Creole Oyster Stew. One interesting twist is that I bought these oysters from JamesnGalveston's cousin!
The first shot is my roux, and the second is the finished stew. It turned out delicious and very rich.

Man, I hate it that I couldn't make it up there last night but if you give some of us a couple of days notice, we would really enjoy dinner at your place. I'll bring some wine.
