After enjoying a delightful time tasting sparkling wines, still wines, meeting other wine enthusiasts and indulging in wonderful food, we returned home to await #Blizzard2016.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\">We didn\u2019t wait long and the storm arrived in our area on Friday mid-afternoon. We\u2019ve been snowbound ever since. We share a long driveway with three other homes. Sunday we slowly began venturing out to shovel while taking suggestions of doing a little at a time. All of our personal driveways were cleared late Sunday. We ended the day with a potluck dinner at one of our neighbors that included delicious hot homemade chicken soup, warm homemade rolls, a saut\u00e9ed spinach and broccoli combination and a raspberry tart. With the meal we added a Sauterne, Ruby Port and our homemade white Cabernet Sauvignon.<\/div>\n<div class=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"\">All in all it was a great time to eat and enjoy conversation with our neighbors while patiently waiting for a snowplow to clear our street. We hope others have weathered the storm as well as we have. It will be great conversation topic in the years to come.<\/div>\n<div class=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"\">Watch for our next post about Maryland\u2019s Winter Wine event at the Baltimore B &amp; O Museum.<\/div>\n<div class=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"\">Cheers!<br class=\"\" \/>Kathy<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" class=\"owbutton\" src=\"http:\/\/www.onlywire.com\/button\" title=\"An Evening After Shoveling Snow\" url=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/?p=12480\"><\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After enjoying a delightful time tasting sparkling wines, still wines, meeting other wine enthusiasts and indulging in wonderful food, we returned home to await #Blizzard2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[174],"tags":[3551,3552,98,2807],"class_list":["post-12480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wine-newscommentary","tag-blizzard-2016","tag-sauterne","tag-wine","tag-winter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12480"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12480\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12484,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12480\/revisions\/12484"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
