Fat Tuesday Feast - And Wine!

What a meal we had last night!
My son Michael and his wife Dani invited us over for dinner and pinochle - something we try and do at least once a month.
We started with Judy's gumbo - made with sausage, bits of chicken and crawfish tails. I love crawfish!
The main course was a mixed grill of buttered shrimp, blackened tilapia, some kind of sausage and a side of Jambalaya to slather everything in.
Oh yeah, I think there was some rice and green beans, too.
The wines: Sarapo Chardonnay, Evening Land Edna Valley Pinot Noir with the meal - perfect, and a Neyers Cabernet Sauvignon to enjoy with some bittersweet chocolate for dessert.
As usual, the guys won at pinochle, but the ladies actually made a game of it this night.
And now.
Lent.
No alcohol for 40 days!  Wish me luck.

Tom
