2012 Winemaking Adventure

Every year we join a group of Stryker friends for a wine making trip.  Brian Fouts brother and uncle provide the grapes, equipment and expertise and we provide the labor.  This year I made lunch which of course I loved!!!  This was the first year that we had to be responsible parents so we had to leave a little early, but still had just enough time to indulge in some wine.
The 2012 Red Winemakers

Bish picking grapes.  We filled buckets to haul back to the crusher.


I picked a few bunches but I mostly "documented" the event :)

Lunch.  What a stunning backdrop.

I used chalkboard vinyl to make make labels for the food.

The table cloth is oil cloth.


Stuffed sandwich.  Found this idea on interest.  I think it would be better with some cured meats mixed in.

The best cheese!  I made the cheese labels with a label maker and toothpicks and just cut the ends.

I setup a panini press next to the sandwiches and guests could add meat and cheese to customize their sandwich.

Rich chocolate cookies paired well with the red wine.

Borsin Garlic & Herb spread.

Everyone seemed to enjoy lunch.

Hi, I'm Kerri Bishman

I haven't update my blog in years, but I've enjoying so many crafts and hobbies lately, I think it's time to share what I'm doing and learning.  My only hope on this site it to share some ideas and inspire!

Rory's 4 Months Old

Boot to Bonnet

I sold my car!!  In three hours no less.  I posted it on Craigslist and that was it.  Three hours later it was driving away and I was holding hundred dollar bills in my hand (I would like to take a moment to thank the good people at Chase for being open on a holiday so that I'm longer holding those presidents on their special holiday!)  The especially good part of selling my car is that my dream car is already on order and the Austrians are kindly building it for me.  I've been tracking it online and have been assured that my Copper is dreaming of zig-zagging the Neighborhood streets of Willow Glen with me...as I have with it. I ordered the new four door in white with a black top and mirrors.  I'm going to decorate it with black white racing strips from boot to bonnet.
