I’ll Toast to That!

This time of year is one of celebration: it is the graduation, BBQ, summer birthday season! The wine I think that goes with most anything and any occasion is sparkling. Champagne (which is only called Champagne if from the Champagne region of France) and other sparkling wines come in so much variety it’s crazy, plus it is the easiest wine, in my opinion, to mix in a cocktail. Here are my suggestions for the summer BBQ, even if the sun never comes out in Seattle.

This is an inexpensive bubbly that is great-tasting. Perfect for making those summer mimosas!

My favorite Champagne: Taittinger

Segura Viudas Brut

Washington’s own Chateau Ste. Michelle puts out an awesome bubbly that retails for about $8.99 a bottle. The Blanc de Noir is my Favorite. Yummy! I drink it straight or mix it in cocktails.

Sheba’s Wine Blog: Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget

Sheba — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 01:11:17 +0000

Well, I know I haven’t blogged in an extremely long time but here is my re-entry into the blogosphere! My wine drinking has dropped dramatically in the last year. The recession forced my pocketbook to choose more “affordable” bottles. For a while there were decent finds for $5 to $7 per bottle. I miss the days when I would drop 20 bucks on a bottle of L’ecole 41 Red wine and drink my cares away. Sometimes a good bottle is worth that price tag. Sometimes we have to decide we deserve it. What made me think of this is I recently bought a bottle of Sheridan Vineyard Kamiakin Red ($15) wine on sale. My friend commented on the nose of the wine being floral and I suddenly realized I haven’t purchased a palate-worthy wine in a while. Wines worth a swirl, sniff, and sip test. While it wasn’t my usual $5 to $7, I realize it’s time to look at those lower-range quality wines. The recession has gotten this wine geek off her game. There are plenty of exceptional wines in my price range, especially from Washington State. So this is my repentance, no more impulse buys. I will only taste to savor, hence forth.

Wednesday, March 17, 2010 Come out and party! Faire’s 4th Birthday with live band-Blu Meadows We’re growing up!

Faire is celebrating four years of existence, with live sounds echoed by Blu Meadows.

The music of BluMeadows has been described as a mix of various styles, Afro-Cuban, funk, hip-hop, reggae, rock calypso and everything in between. BluMeadows says his music is best described as “consciousness” rock with a universal message.

BluMeadows lives in Seattle, but his music has taken him across the US, Europe and the Far East. He’s performed with Parliament Funkadelic, Joe Higgs, Buddy Miles, Liquid Jesus, Branford Marsalis, Bruce Hornsby, Dave Lewis (Father Of The Northwest Sound), Pete Depoe (Redbone), Eek -A-Mouse, Don Carlos, Obo Addy, Charlie Chaplan, Pablo Moses, Apple Gabriel, And Leon Hendrix to name but a few..

BluMeadows plays music with an aim to open minds, and not simply entertain. But don’t let that fool you, his explosive riffs will have you out of your chair and on the dance floor the moment he starts jamming.
