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.

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.
