Wine and Cheese Party

Last Saturday, I threw a wine and cheese party for my sweet husband. 

My friend Ally designed the invitations, and as always, they were perfect!

We had the party in a beautiful private room at Sonoma Wine Bar, which is just minutes from our house.

As soon as we arrived, Gene headed to check out the wine! 

We had two whites (a 2011 Laird Big Ranch Sauvignon Blanc and a 2011 Pip Chardonnay) and two reds (a 2009 Twisted Red Blend from Portugal and a 2010 L'Oliveto Cabernet). They were all delicious!

In addition to the wine, we had a cheese and charcuterie platter, caprese skewers, bruschetta, pizza, crab cakes, and jerk chicken skewers, all some of Gene's favorite foods. The best part, though, was all the family and friends who were able to join us for the celebration. Even though they were in the midst of unpacking their new house, Mike and Jess were able to come!

It was a fun party and a fantastic way to celebrate with family and friends.
