A Favorite Italian Wine? How do I begin to choose? #ItalianFWT

Our challenge this month, given by Camilla of Culinary Cam, was to share our favorite Italian Wine.  Say what?!!  Am I really expected to choose just one Italian wine out of all the wonderful wines they have to offer?

I've decided to share a new Italian wine I enjoyed recently at a wine tasting.  This wine is from the Langhe region of Piedmont, a white wine in a land known for its reds.

I just finished listening to The Sideways Life of Denny Voss.  It was a Kindle recommendation that included an audible feature with the e-book.

Hotteok #EattheWorld

Hotteok is a Korean flatbread or pancake, stuffed with sweet or savory fillings.  It is a common street food in South Korea, brought over by the Chinese as a savory treat and adapted to the sweet, nutty version that I am sharing today.

Happy St. Nicholas Day and the Weekly Menu

Boy, this house sure is quiet.  Dian and his family left yesterday, and the silence is deafening. I'm going to certainly miss all the squeals and laughter those children brought into our house. It was a wonderful visit, and I look forward to the next time.

Almond Cherry Snowballs #ChristmasCookiesWeek

Each Christmas, we make Mom Klik's Almond Cherry Snowballs.  They are part of my husband's fond Christmas food memories and are now our children's fond Christmas Food memories.  This year, I brought my Angel Face into the act, so it can become a fond Christmas Food memory for her too.
