Catie Winding Down the Walla Walla Vine - 2008

As always, I was blessed with the opportunity to share with friends and family good food and especially good wines from the Walla Walla Valley during this holiday season. And along with a beautiful and extensive selection of wines, "Raclette" has become a standing Christmas Eve tradition for us. What is Raclette? Of course, raclette is a semi-firm cow's cheese originating from Switzerland and also produced in certain regions of France. Typically the round of cheese is heated in front of a fire… Continue

Catie College Cellars of Walla Walla: Clarke's Blend - 2005

Opening a bottle of wine is like opening a scrapbook. Wine can tell a story: from the label on the bottle to the nose and palate of the splendid nectar. I think there is no other intoxicating liquid quite like wine that has the power to wrap us in remembrances and recollections. Wine is meant to share with others and I wanted just the right moment to share the new bottle of Clarke’s Blend – 2005. You see, it was a limited bottling by the students of Colle… Continue

Rick Whitehurst Best Christmas ever

My family and I enjoyed this Christmas 2008 here in Walla Walla. It was truly a "White Christmas". We sledded, built a snowman, and had a great day. Here it is now the 27th and the 40 degree air temperature is melting the snow very quickly. The roads are slush and I'm glad I did not have to go anywhere today. Being from Pasadena Ca. where the Christmas days can sometimes be into the high 80s, I do not regret moving the family here. Continue

WineCellar Balboa Sangiovese Rocks the House!

You know it's a good night when you get a hug from the winemaker (Tom Glase) after his hip surgery and are then told that you can buy the $110 bottle of wine at an 80% discount. Perhaps the cute guy behind the bar was pulling my leg about the prices, but I told him I would have paid just about any price for that delicious Balboa Candy Mountain 2006 Sangiovese. … Continue

Catie Holiday Barrel Tasting in Walla Walla - Dec 4 - 7

Yup, it's here. The Walla Walla Holiday Barrel Tasting is this weekend and what can I say about this event that hasn’t already been said? In fact, this is almost a repeat from what I blogged last year regarding this festive Walla Walla wine occasion. This is truly the one time of the year that the "angels" won't be blamed for taking their share of the barrel. What's really cool this year is, not only the Winemaker's Fete will kick off the event on Thursday evening, but Friday evening this town… Continue

Catie The Obligatory Thanksgiving Wine Pairing

Now, I told myself I wasn’t going to blog about it – naa-aah. Not me. No way this year. I was not going to tell my readers what wines make for a perfect pairing with their Thanksgiving turkey. I mean we’ve been reading about it for years from the LA Times to the Seattle Times to the New York Times and back to the LA Times, again. And let's not forget the glossies - perfectly poised and basted birds on the covers of food and wine magazines and between their pages are "perfect wine pairing" sugges… Continue

WineCellar 'The Fabulous Five'

The adventure began as the five of us piled in the car and headed North. Even though we weren’t exactly sure what was in store for us that evening, it didn’t seem to matter as laughter and ongoing chatter filled the car. You know how it is when a group of gals get together. It was our monthly ‘Girls Night’ that we all looked forward to immensely. We arrived at the Manila Bay Cafe in Dayton for dinner. We were seated at a round table in the quaint café… Continue

Seriously, you can’t go wrong here and you won’t look like a schmuck when you arrive at your Turkey Day dinner. Depending on the type of entrée to be served, usually a white wine or rosé g… Continue

WineCellar Intriguing Walla Walla Wine Finds

So… I’ve decided that I want to be one of those people. The people that get to sit down and decide on the name of the wineries next release. I absolutely love the names that are created to identify some of these wines today. Seriously where do they come from? Yes, some are obvious by using the varietal as a description, but others? Come on. Cowgirl Cab by DaMa, I love it! I had a friend who rid… Continue

Maria Free drinks at Verve Coffee house tonight 10/6

To anyone who hasn't heard, Verve Coffee and Arthouse on Spokane St. (across from library) is closing today and offering free drinks from 6 to 8 p.m. I really liked taking the boys to Verve, and my 2-year-old especially liked going to the "coffee shop" because of a little play area set up just for kids. When I had to work from home in December I always got a lot done here because I could take advantage of the wi-fi or make phone calls while Diego played with the trucks and toys. The windows faci… Continue

Irrigation Ice Sculpture

Today exhibited a lot of unusual conditions. After local fog lifted I headed to Walla Walla for groceries and was amazed by the presence of low lying clouds and ice created by irrigation in freezing temperatures. I just had to shoot a few scenes because I hadn't seen this phenomenon many times in the past.
