McMinnville

Matt planned a really fun winery weekend to celebrate my birthday. I was very grateful to get out of town! We went to McMinnville and stayed at the Hotel Oregon and toured 3 wineries: Youngburg Hill, Yamhill Vineyards, and Amity. It was incredibly foggy all day, but it made beautiful hoar frost. 

The itinerary: Text from Grape Escape Winery Tours with italics comments from us. We are not expert wine tasters and we didn't take notes, so I will put down my amateur comments for what I remember.  [...]

Now serving No. 27

I came home Friday to a box outside the door. Matt's momma sent me beautiful tulips! Did you know tulips keep growing even after they're cut? I'm all out of vases (I think we donated them in an effort to purge for the move), so I used a clean pasta sauce jar. They don't seem to mind. I love having them brighten up the counter. :)
