Atop Mountains

Over the past few days, I’ve tried two of the best wines I’ve ever tasted in my life (literally): Revena Cabernet St. Helena 2004, and Paradise View Syrah 2002. When it comes to wine (and most things, really), I don’t worry much about what I’m “supposed” to enjoy; I just like what I like…and these, I liked.

At $19.99, the smooth, fruity Paradise View is still a touch pricier than what I usually pick up for dinner (I shoot for the $12-$13 range), but it’s so good that I might have to up my standards.

The Revana is way expensive (about $90 for a bottle), but there are occasions (birthdays, anniversaries…snow days…Wednesdays…) that call for a wine this delicious.

Friday morning, Liz, Megan, Kendrick and I stopped into the Main St. Bakery & Cafe for breakfast. I was feeling less-than-fab due to some hydration issues (I was warned that constant water drinking was required because of the high altitude, but ignored the advice and woke up this morning with a myriad of bad things going on), so I stuck to hot cereal cooked in apple juice and dotted with golden raisins, which was unexpectedly flavorful. I also ate both Liz and Kendrick’s grits, because all grits are good grits, in my opinion…and these were great grits.

Helmeting and Kisses

This was Kendrick’s second time snowboarding ever, so he thought it best to wear a helmet (a good idea for everyone, regardless of skill level…and yeah, I should probably take my own advice).
