A Good Food Day

Last weekend we went to the Chalet. Lake Michigan showed its many different faces. Grandma Sharon and Grandpa Bob came on Friday, when the Lake was angry, and so the afternoon was spent poking around St. Joseph.


Saturday the Lake calmed down and we stayed home. We had a delicious Bit of Swiss breakfast, followed by a nice walk. Lunch was tasty Vietnamese-style vegetarian sandwiches. The afternoon was spent on the beach (Lisa and Robert) and hanging out at the Chalet (Sharon and Bob). We broke out the wine early, starting with the 2016 Pinot grigio. Lisa and Sharon love it, but I still get the faintest hint of hay or a barnyard. Next we moved to appetizers and 2016 blueberry rosé. All agreed this was good wine, even better at the end of the bottle. Dinner was flat iron steak with tomato-fregola warm salad, accompanied by 2016 blackberry wine. I'm satisfied that this year's blackberry does not suffer the flaws of 2015. More Bit of Swiss for desert. Sharon declared it "a good food day." Indeed.
