You guys really came through with the wine recommendations yesterday! Thank you to everyone who responded, and it’s safe to say we have at least a couple more Sunday wine nights locked in before we give up.

In other news, is anyone else’s dog super picky? And I’m not talking about just not liking certain things. Our dog will literally only eat Kraft Singles as a bribe to get him to do things. Not Tillamook, not Boar’s Head, off-brand? Forget about it. I should probably also mention he’s a Shiba, which might explain a lot. Anyways, if you see me walking around with a Kraft Single in my hand, don’t worry about it. I’ll put a picture of the cheese snob at the end of the email for reference.

Speaking of cheese, for today’s giveaway, enter to win a pair of tickets to the Portland Cheese and Meat Festival at Montgomery Park on Saturday, Nov. 14th.
