We started off with breakfast treats at home, then headed out to woodinville for some wine tasting. The wineries out there are interesting, especially considering the fact that the grapes are grown way out in eastern Washington. Mainly they're just small industrial spots where the wines are aged in barrels and then tasted in rooms in the front. We hit up 4 wineries, a vodka distillery (single silo vodka = delicious), a white whiskey place, and red hook for beers and lunch. Needless to say a great time was had by all, but man it (combined with the sunshine) was a bit coma-inducing. In fact we came home and napped for a bit before heading out to dinner.
For dinner we met up with alex and suzanne at Quinn's. Our delightful hosts (seriously A+D are amazing and I can only hope to someday repay the hospitality) chose this spot based on my love for sour ales. I had one while we waited for the table but switched to a local apple-lemon soda with dinner. Also, I did indeed order pig face with dinner. It was shredded and breaded and formed into delicious pork nuggets. No one wanted to try the pig face but I made them and they all declared nom nom!
On our way home we passed by cupcake royale where Derrick bought a round of all the special seasonal strawberry cakes. We paired them with a pint of vanilla frozen custard, some rose and declared it a great day.
Now if you'll excuse me, it's time for some shuteye. Amy gave me some knockout tea and it's really kicking in. Besides if tomorrow is anything like today, I'm going to need some sleeps.
Ps. Kitty figgy here is adorable and feisty and great, but she pwned us by marking her spot on our bed. Thiggy. Thanks figgy.
