RVing, a Spanish Griswold trip
We drove over 1000 miles and hit two camp sites, four restaurants, two wine bars, one winery, two museums, four rest areas & one ACE hardware.....
After the car getting unhitched, GPS telling us to "stay left" @ every exit, transmission overheating, accidently shutting off the main switch to the RV battery back up, locking the parking break on the car we had been towing, driving back home for 17 hours and last but not least.....dodging deers, yes deers.....after all that we still had a great time.
I'll be posting new foodie adventures to share with you.

Wedding Day Receptions Rock!!!
I had the pleasure of attending my best friends daughters wedding, It's amazing seeing them grow up and being @ her wedding was such a beautiful experience.
Cherish your children and every moment you have with them because one day their all grown up.
Sante Wine Bar, Asheville NC
Serving lunch and dinner, Santé Wine Bar and Tap Room is a European style wine bar featuring wines by the glass and bottle with flights and light fare including cheese boards, dips, salads and sweets. Wine-lovers at Santé were recently treated to a cutting-edge concept in winemaking: wine from a keg. Santé’s keg system is the first in the state to feature twelve taps solely dedicated to wine, and it’s an idea whose time has come.  |
This is a great place to take a break from all the walking around and simple relax and get a awesome glass of wine. I was very excited to try the tap wines and see just how good they could be. My lady had the Sainsbury Rose and I had the King's Estate Acrobat Pinot Noir, both right from the tap and tasted fresh, very refreshing and crisp.
Call me old fashion but I feel they need to work on displaying the wines better. I truly enjoyed the wines from the tap but it was missing the beauty of displaying the wines and showing the bottles. When you are just looking directly @ a tap you seem to loose the romance that one builds up with drinking wine. I love the concept but just feel we need to respect the wines more and do a better job displaying them. I listed their web site for your review.

French Broad Chocolates, Asheville NC
We made a list of location we needed to visit during our trip to Asheville.
The French broad was one of those locations. Below is the web site for you to explore.
The Lounge is the only place where you can experience our complete selection of desserts including our signature hot sipping chocolates, artisan cheese plate, cakes and more.
liquid truffles
our signature opulent, ganache-based hot sipping chocolate, the likes of which you’ll find in Europe’s finest chocolate shops.
hot chocolate
rich and chocolatey, yet lighter bodied than the liquid truffle.
I had the hot chocolate, truly the best hot beverage I've ever had.
