Wine and Mushrooms

Its mushroom season.  Today we went to a fundraiser up in Mendocino where we all judged ten mushroom soups from the noted Mendocino restaurants.  There was plentiful (we mean plentiful) wine tasting along with many mushroom appetizers.  We have not heard if we won anything at the silent auction.  We bid on quite a few area restaurants.  We went with our neighbors Leon and Donna.

For the Thursday hike club - we went above Salt Point on a great hike with a PHD student from Berkeley who is a mushroom expert.  We learned so much about mushrooms and had a fantastic hike.  We came home with Chantalle's which we put on our pizza.

Last night we went to the local Co-Op fundraiser where they had some  pasta with homemade veggie sauce and brick oven baked garlic bread and salad.  The portions were huge.

Can't say we've done too much on the dieting front.

We have events both Monday and Tuesday nights plus a couple hikes so we are sure staying busy
