So, we got home from the "Family Dinner that's really Dessert" last night. We had pie, cookies, cinnamon rolls, turnovers, and Brown Bobbies. I had 2 Brown Bobbies, 1 roll, 1 cookie. Not bad for hours of sitting around staring at the food. I also discovered that I can't take certain people for more than an hour if I'm sober. I raised my voice in irritation more times last night than in the last month. I have to think it's because I didn't have enough wine.
Anyway, we arrived home and unloaded, did a few chores. I read a chapter in my current book and discovered I was hungry.
Wine Snob Hubby fixed me a snack, the last of the leftover risotto, a bread stick, and a glass of the $2Chuck.
WSH recently discovered the joy that is risotto and has been experimenting with different combos in the rice. The last one was pretty simple: mushrooms and onion.
I had the last of it at 10:00 pm last night. It was beautiful. The wine with it... not as good as it was with the salad yesterday afternoon. Last night, the wine left a sharp tang on the back of my tongue. Not as enjoyable, in my uneducated opinion.
Tonight: WSH is currently smoking a salmon fillet and we're going to have it with some capers and a Sauvignon Blanc. The education continues.
