Sweet Returns

The hubby and I returned tonight from a wonderful weekend with wonderful friends in Door County, Wisconsin. Well - actually, we never made it to the land of cherries and wine - we made it as far as Kewaunee County, which is just south of Door County ... well, you get the picture.

I will be posting pictures from our journey in an upcoming blog post, but had to share this one. This is from our return home ...


Earlier this month, in celebration of a new blog design, my Twitter friend and fellow foodie Katie at Salt and Chocolate hosted a giveaway and I was the lucky winner of a gift basket. It was waiting for Ryan and I upon our return home and wow ... if this is winning, I'm going to be entering contests like a fool. Amongst the contents were a handful of spices from Penzeys, Katie's handcrafted bourbon vanilla, organic chocolate syrup from Holykakow and homemade nut mixes ... pizza flavored almonds, fall spice mixed nuts and a Mexican chocolate mix.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Katie ...
