Yellow Dahlias

Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at 8:34 PM

What could be more heartwarming than a bouquet of bright yellow dahlias? OK, a good glass of wine maybe. I wish it was possible to grow theses beauties here in the desert but alas, it just gets too hot. And with temps around 112 this time of year they wouldn't survive very long. But a quick drive to the Getty Museum in LA and I can get my fill of a wide variety of dahlias.

Old Wine

One of the bottles says 1984, but the dust looks like it's been there longer than that. I don't think the wine could be any good, stored in an upright position, the cork must be all dried out.

Kameleon

As I remember, the wine was pretty good, but I can assure you that the lunch was fantastic! There's this little bistro in the town of Tremalot, France that fixes the most awesome food. And each time I go there I am never disappointed.

"Real" Italian Deli

There's nothing better than a real Italian Deli, and this one in Siena, Italy, is no exception. Just look at all the goodies in the window. Proscuttio from Parma, salami, Panini and wine. All that's missing is the cheese.

A Glass of Wine - St. Emillion

Sunday, February 14, 2010 at 8:52 PM

The best steak I ever had was at L'Envers du Decor in St. Emillion, France. It was heaven and melted in my mouth. Oh yeah, the wine wasn't to shabby either.

French Lunch

Wednesday, May 6, 2009 at 5:33 PM

Quiche Lorraine is on the agenda as my lunch when I arrive in Paris. To go with that glass of red wine I posted yesterday. Then an evening trip to the Louvre is in order. It'll be a long day of travel but well worth it.
