Socks!

It was a mellow knitting evening last night. Just Claire and me working on our socks. I finished the "Tahoe weekend" socks. They look great, and Lornas Laces sock yarn is pretty darned yummy feeling on the feets, even if it is a bit twisty to work with. Claire continued plugging away on her Pippi Kneestocking #1.

2004 Robert Hall Cabernet Sauvignon (on sale last week for $13 at Nugget Market) was our wine of the evening paired with a delicious pesto pizza from Giovanni's (a local pizzaria) and a salad of spring greens with feta. RH Cab is quickly becoming one of my favorite everyday wines. It is nicely balanced with a little bit of complexity, and not overpowered with tannins. Not terribly challenging, but certainly not boring either. I think this might become this summer's housewine at Casa de G.

Thanks, Robin, for introducing us to this lovely wine :)
