Dinner: Jan 1

I'm starting a project of sorts: taking pictures of my dinner, (almost) every day for a year. As I get better at this, I should be able to cover a couple of days in one post.



January 1: Salmon, Potatoes & Mushroom

The salmon was left over from New Year's Eve, when we had salmon and champagne. Sauteed mushrooms and baked potatoes rounded out the meal.

That's the table and the serving dish.

Our local wine store apparently overstocked this wine that is really good; 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Since they overstocked, they sell it cheap.

Finally, of course, we had to have dessert: cheese, M&M's, crackers and fig jam, and a hopalicious from Ale Asylum in Madison; Kate's nephew gifted us with lots of good Wisconsin beer when we went to Sheboygan before New Year's--I'll have to get him some local Minnesota beers!

Only a test.


Let me see how pictures work.
