Celebrate Mom, Outside!

Have you ever noticed that even the simplest foods taste a little bit extra delicious if you happen to be eating them outside? Hot dogs, for example. Who even knows that's in them? They're a questionable "food" at their best, yet when roasted over a fire (or even just grilled on a BBQ!), they taste like heaven. Like they could be sold alongside truffles and foie gras somewhere in the South of France.

So this weekend, while you're taking some time to celebrate your mom, your grandmother, or whoever it is that you may be celebrating, why not make her something delicious and eat outside. If a hot dog can taste that good, just imagine what an afternoon tea with Mini White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecakes and Smoked Salmon and Caper Cream Cheese Sandwiches will do?

If you're serving light dishes like the ones listed above, grab a sparkling wine as an accompaniment. Give this Trapiche Extra Brut Rose a shot. It's light, fresh, well balanced, and goes well on its own - so if you're not planning a meal, you'd be fine to just sit with a glass of wine and something simple like a bowl of strawberries.

What do you plan on doing for your mom this weekend? Any special meals or desserts in mind? Let me know!
