Sniff, Swirl, Sip!

Walla Walla wine tasting! You definitely won't run out of wineries to visit when you head toward Walla Walla, they have 30 tasting rooms in just their downtown area! We stayed at Walla Faces Inns at the Vineyard and it was wonderful, a little bit off the beaten path but beautiful if you want some R&R time and you pretty much have a pool to yourself! There were a handful of wineries that were added into our Brown Heiny wine stash and more we wished we could have visited, we'll be back!

Corn

Fall is in the air and its been A LONG time since I blogged! Our internet at home has been hardly to not working all summer, a bit of an inconvenience. We had cable internet installed and soon should have a strong connection with no hiccups. Then I can do a better job of keeping everyone up to speed on whats been going on including our most recent adventure to Italy!

Yesterday we found a local U-PiCK corn field and picked about 25 ears, cooked it all up, peeled it off with my handy dandy corn peeler and froze it for the winter! Looking forward to fresh sweet corn when the snow is falling.

A shout out to Ziplock...their vacuum bag refills are awesome for freezing things!
