Our usual family dinner with three generations in attendance and heard oldest son’s stories of Neil and Chuck…

Salad with apples, asiago cheese, and homemade shallot dressing

Asparagus from the farmers’ market sautéed with butter and homegrown shallots.

And those bratwursts made yesterday cooked with potatoes and homemade sauerkraut. We skipped the traditional “brats and beer” and served a Hart 2010 Sauvignon Blanc and a Monte De Oro 2006 Zinfandel.
