Food and Wine- Day 2

I was really looking forward to the macaroni and cheese, but I was a bit disappointed. It was loaded up with pepper bacon, cheddar cheese and leeks.
Food from Wine and Dine Studio. Seared scallops, truffled celery root puree, Brussel sprouts and wild mushrooms. Then a butternut squash ravioli with a brown butter vinaigrette, parmesan cheese and pumpkin seeds.
Trio of cheeses with wine pairings. The wines were a Reata Chardonnay, Rainstorm Silver linings pinot noir rose, and a spellbound petite sirah
From Brazil a Moqueca. Brazilian seafood stew featuring scallops, shrimp, and white fish with a coconut-lime sauce and steamed rice.

Food and Wine- Day 1

We started out in Thailand with the marinated chicken with peanut sauce and stir-fried vegetables. It may not photograph the best, but the sauce was amazing. We paired this with a Singha lager.
We had a bit of a downpour in Mexico, but our umbrella kept my chocolate bread pudding with a chocolate abuelita creme anglaise. Once again delicious and worth getting wet in the rain for!
In China we went for a mala chicken and shrimp bao bun with a Jasmine beer. It was good, but not something we would probably get again.
In India we went for mango lassi, which really wasn’t good. Clint got the naan bread with pickled garlic, mango salsa and coriander pesto dips, definitely a better choice.
For the first time we got to ride Test Track! We will definitely do this again. Richard designed our car and we didn’t win, but I think he figured out how to improve his design for next time.
We headed out all very full, we have quite a bit more to try from the festival, so we will be back soon!

So I had great plans on Friday to get the house cleaned up for when Richard got home today… unfortunately this little girl needed help. So I asked Richard what he thought and he said to go and get her!

She is 2 months old and a little over 2 lb. and has a bit of a chest infection I am thinking.

She is just the sweetest little thing, happy to sleep away on me!
