Despite all indications to the contrary, the wine wall has not gone solely political. We just haven't been able to help ourselves what with all the excitement. But, if you happen to be one of our very few readers who actually visit the "wall" on the right side of our blog to see what wines we've been tasting and how we've been pairing them, you'll be glad to know I just updated that section. No, we have not stopped tasting, or cooking, or pairing. We've just been a little distracted.
In fact, we were so distracted by Super Tuesday, that we forgot to post about our very bougie Super Bowl party. For which, alongside our chips, dips, wings, and pizza (everything but the chips homemade of course), we indulged in Olympia oysters (the smaller ones in the photo). Not familiar with this tiny, sweet, briny, heritage species native to Puget Sound? Check out Slow Food's explanation.
