Culinary Adventures with Camilla

This month, the French Winophiles are looking at the red wines of Provençe. Payal of  Keep the Peas  is hosting. Provençe, a region in southeastern France that borders Italy and the Mediterranean, is renowned for its olive groves, pine forests, and lavender fields. And when you think of wine, you typically think of Prove nçe Rosés...at least that's what comes to my mind first. So, it was nice to get a prompt to look at the red wines of the region. If you are reading this early enough, feel to jump in on our live Twitter chat. We'll be meeting on Saturday, February 20th at 8am Pacific time. Just follow the hashtag #Winophiles and be sure to add that to anything you tweet so we can see it. Here's the group's line-up. These will be live between Friday and Saturday of the event.

This month, Wendy of A Day in the Life on the Farm is hosting the French Winophiles. She levied a fun, two part challenge to the group. You can read her invitation: here .  She offered us copies of A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle - courtesy of Blue Vase Book Exchange* - to accompany our exploration of Provençal wines and food pairings. Bonus points, she said, for not opening up a Provençal Rosé. Needless to say: this wine-swilling bibliophile was in. Immediately.  Provençal Posts A Book, An Inspired Braise, and A (Surprise!)
