Made with much love and gratitude for our good friends Mike and Emily from Three Springs Farm, and those who have graced us with their presence at our farm table dinners, all have been such a inspiring force of inspiration for us here at Living Kitchen Farm and Dairy.
Oh my do I have a story to tell.....
But here are the wines I think my Seattle wine snobs would tell me....
Pinot noir young very fruity. (Oregon, sheeeeooosh)
Or a beefy chard (only because its not like your just picking up a piece of asparagus and eating it in that case a sauve blanc would be in order).
My disclaimer ... wait,,,,
DISCLAIMER
1:i am really tired
2: I've enjoyed a little over the limit box wine (bota)
3: do you have any idea how many tomato plants I have to put out,,,,,
4: I really should go to bed but I've had too much box wine

7: g'night

Lisa,
To answer your last question first, yes, someone is reading/listening. I love your blog. I've been following it for the last year or so; you've managed to do some amazing things and deserve to feel proud.
The menu looks great! (Apropos of nothing in particular, do you happen to have a little bit of asparagus coming in right now? ;))
I hope that the new veggies mark the beginning of an easier season for you. I was sorry to hear about all of your troubles with coyotes over the past few months.
By the way, whatever happened with the fire that you mentioned back in March? I'm sure that such a minor event has disappeared in the furor of lambing/kidding season, but I've been curious about what happened.
Best wishes for a sucessful summer.
Wow, what a menu! I love, love, love asparagus. The shortbread doesn't sound bad either. :)
You're definitely working hard and doing a fantastic job. I hope you've been able to get a little rest after you get all the tomatoes planted.
