Snack the Healthful Way

Jan 19, 2012 8:16 AM

After the holidays, we all look for ways to eat healthier — and let’s be honest, we all enjoy a snack. Keep your snacking healthy this season by loading up on delicious fruit treats. Wawona frozen fruit from Fresno has been grown on a family farm for more than 60 years. Their fresh-frozen fruit is hand picked at the peak of ripeness and processed within 24 hours to capture that fresh-fruit taste. When fresh peaches and strawberries are out of season, you can still find them in these frozen bags.

All's Fair In Love and Pairings

Jun 27, 2011 10:11 AM

So besides "What's your favorite cheese?", the No. 1 question I get asked is, "What kind of cheese would you pair with this wine?". To be honest, pairings are subjective, and what tastes good to one person may not thrill another. But to help, I usually stick with one of two things: Complete opposites (like a sweet wine paired with a salty cheese), or things that are similar (like a light, tangy cheese with a bright, crisp wine).

Now to be fair, there are a million great combinations that do not fall within these guidelines, but this is a good place to start. And for a sure-fire warm weather favorite, try a fresh chevre (such as one from Laura Chenel or Cypress Grove) with a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc (or, if you're feeling adventurous, a dry rosé). Try my suggestion, or tell me yours. Cheers!
