You can read more about the Curated List of Wines and Cheeses for the #MadeinFrance event where Whole Foods Market Global Buyers Devon Broglie and Cathy Strange will be chatting during the Facebook Live event. Don't forget that's coming up next Thursday, October 5th. So, if you're available, hop on and follow the hashtag - #MadeinFrance - between 2:30pm and 3:00pm Pacific time.


When I first read about the Vignobles des Roches Morgon, Epoisses came to mind as a perfect pairing. I love rich, stinky cheeses; I love them even more when paired with a wine that has depth and elegance.


Vignobles des Roches Morgon is an extraordinary red wine. Made from Gamay grapes this wine has a depth that is significant, but not overpowering. It's simultaneously light and rich. It's an enigma in a bottle. An amazing enigma.


Epoisses cheese from Hervé Mons is everything you want from a rich cheese. It's decadent and stinky. Oh, it's divine!


I served it with a variety of fruits and nuts. But, really, all I needed was to be happy was Vignobles des Roches Morgon + Epoisses...and some way to get the cheese to my mouth. I used crackers since my mom always chastised me for licking the knife. Ha.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

By
Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.  My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons.
