Work & Play On Turkey Day.

Worked the shop today from 11-3pm… for those last minute wine emergencies. Did a standard Sunday’s worth of sales.

Then it was off to MoonSong’s for a Turkey Day Dinner with Bunny and Nicolas.

Can you say deep fried turkey?

Do not do this on a wooden deck – least you burn the house down.

The table is set:

Now we just need some people:

And what a menu:

  • Broiled Bay Scallops
  • Mushroom Duxelles in Phylo
  • Crudités
  • Deep-fried Turkey
  • Braised Brussell sprouts
  • Mashed Patatoes & Gravy
  • Sage Dressing
  • Cranberry Relish
  • Vanilla Cheesecake with Pecan Topping

Yum. Here is a shot of the Scallops and Duxelles…

Double Yum.

All I had to do was supply the wine:

  • Apple/Pear/Quince cider before
  • Provence rosé with the scallops and duxcelles
  • Cote du Rhone with the turkey
  • Vintage port with the dessert

I was actually home a little after eight. Thanks boys for the great meal.
