Veni, Vidi, Vino: Reason 2: False Chic Dinners
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008/05/reason-2-false-chic-dinners.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Friday, May 2, 2008. Reason 2: False Chic Dinners. I am truly excited about all things Gourmet. That's why the first night at dinner the menu stated the meals were the brain child of Jacques* something-or-another straight out of France, I was prepared to be amazed. The menu made my mouth water. I chose the smoked Salmon, lamb chops and crème brûlée. A proper smoked salmon. Rolling over in his grave. Some French name, you get the picture. Gotta l...

Veni, Vidi, Vino: Shore Excursion
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008/05/shore-excursion.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Sunday, May 4, 2008. When I started writing this blog, the idea was to discuss cultural issues. I really didn't care who read it, it was mostly for a personal release from the anti-cultural prison I live in. Not many people regularly read my blog, except my circle- howdy y'all. Tryouts are coming soon, knock yourself out. Sunday, May 04, 2008. Oh yeah. and I'm the King of the World! Proofy.hates.big.boats. May 6, 2008 at 10:37 PM.

Veni, Vidi, Vino: March 2008
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Monday, March 24, 2008. While riding my bike in the area between Champagne. Regions of France, in the department of Aisne. I came across several "ghost villages" with deserted buildings. I also came across this church which is small, and overgrown with tall grass. It was not constructed in the typical Champagne style. More of a Picardie style;. Monday, March 24, 2008. Wednesday, March 19, 2008. I watched the show " The Frugal Gourmet. Anyway, Se...

Veni, Vidi, Vino: October 2007
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Thursday, October 25, 2007. In Honor Of Halloween. I will never forget October 1984, in grade school music class we were singing the Name Game. I think the teacher wanted a change from the Hokey Pokey. S The class stared at me scornfully. I lied and said I had no idea that would happen, and got sent out into the hall where I practiced the backspin. Until Music was over. At least I didn't suggest the word "duck.". Thursday, October 25, 2007.

Veni, Vidi, Vino: Pandora
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008/06/pandora.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Monday, June 9, 2008. Have you ever discovered a song that you like so much that you wish you could find similar songs? I discovered the site Pandora. Through a friend, and I am hooked. And even another version of the seed song performed by Sinéad O'Connor. Oh, and if you really like the song, the site allows you to click on the album cover, select buy, and then the song will pop up in iTunes. I am starting my " Amos Lee. Monday, June 09, 2008.

Veni, Vidi, Vino: July 2007
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Wednesday, July 4, 2007. 2004 Honig Sauvignon Blanc. I LOVE this wine. It is fabulous. It is one of my dependable favorites, especially in summer. I consistently order it by the glass at a local sushi restaurant, because it really goes well with seafood. Whatever the taste, I believe this wine is one of the best examples of how Sauvignon Blanc is supposed to taste. It is a mainstay in my collection. Wednesday, July 04, 2007. End of the World.

Veni, Vidi, Vino: April 2008
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Wednesday, April 30, 2008. Reason 1: Smokey the Steam Pipe. First off, my reasons for my not liking cruises are in no certain order. In fact, this is not my numero uno ranked complaint, and the fact it is number one is arbitrary. Okay, the big red double chimney-thingy on the Carnival ships is very tall and has black smoke pouring out of it. The billowing smoke can be seen for miles away at any of the excursions. Wednesday, April 30, 2008. I was...

Veni, Vidi, Vino: Reason 4: Destination Times
http://changewaterintowine.blogspot.com/2008/05/reason-4-destination-times.html
Veni, Vidi, Vino. Wine, cuisine, viticulture, enology, art. Tuesday, May 6, 2008. Reason 4: Destination Times. Most of the destinations we visited had an allotted time window of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Also, keep in mind that it takes almost an hour to get off the boat, and up to an hour to get back on, especially when the destination is one requiring a boat to ferry you from the docks. I like Margaritaville as much as anyone else, but if you only visit Margaritaville at each stop have you. Event It is almos...
