Monday's have become our laugh night. Although we aren't often slouched in front of the television, for some reason a series of what are called "situation comedies" have caught our fancy. To fortify our soon to come belly laughs, we had a simple dinner of last of the season corn on the cob, compliments of our CSA and supported that with a sausage/potato/egg in a skillet bake. Nice and spicy, the Italian sausage! To embellish this melange, we had a 2008 Penner-Ash Roseo, or as they describe it, a pink, pink wine. Yum! Now I know why we bought it. We are not huge P-A fans; the few times that we've gone to the winery, they just seem so snobbish, so California-esque. But the Roseo (which I don't think was a mercy buy, since we don't feel any affinity towards the winery or servers) and a Riesling found a home here and we have enjoyed them. It's nice to have an alternative to the ubiquitous pinot noir.
This coming Saturday we will be going to Barry & Suzie's for a SWIRL. Suzie's famous pork! A whole week to find the perfect wine. My favorite homework.
