What are we drinking?
Sam and Lani shared a 2004 Riesling from the Buttonwood Grove Winery in New York's Finger Lakes district. $10 a bottle. 12% alcohol.
Wine notes: Buttery Notes. Full Body. Sam wanted to give it 4.5 glasses, but Lani's putting up the show notes, so Lani's 5 glass rating wins!
Shout-outs & Shout-offs to:
Sam: Shout outs to pretty much everyone who attended the RWA National Conference in Dallas last week, but with a big shout-off to the Dallas Hyatt for their horrible service.Lani: Shout-out to her in-laws, who took the kids to Alaska so she could go on a wine-tour!
Listener question:
From Kim Hoelzi: Right now I'm in the process of editing my manuscript. How will I know when it's "done"? I keep picking at it making it better and I wondered if I'm simply avoiding sending it in. But on the other hand, I don't want to send it in before it's ready. See the dilemma?We Recommend!
Both Lani and Sam recommend... the Cayuga Wine Trail! And additionally, Lani's adding a recommendation for Sam's Wonderful WWfW Pesto (great on fresh baked bread - yummmm!) Here's the recipe:
1 bag (or about 1 cup) of sun-dried tomatoes
1 small can (or about 1/4 cup) of black olives or kalamata olives (no pits)
4 large cloves of fresh garlic
good olive oil
crusty bread
1) Peel garlic and place in food processor
2) Add a bit of olive oil and run processor to chop up garlic
3) Add olives and run processor to chop lightly
4) Add sun-dried tomatoes and more olive oil
5) Run processor until all ingredients are chopped and mixed well (don't overprocess)
6) Add salt to taste
7) Put in a container and set aside for a few hours to combine flavors (do not refrigerate)
8) Smear on crusty bread or use with dipping oil
