She is supposed to eat at least three eggs a week to keep her allergy from returning, so I've been on an egg recipe mission recently. These "muffins," made almost entirely of egg, were a hit!

It is almost time to start bottling our wine! Bring us any empty bottle if you'd like some. We got the grapes from a local importer and are trying a mix of syrah and tempranillo this year. One jug tastes a bit off but the others taste great. I thought wine would be the one exception to the rule "homemade is best" but it's actually surprisingly good, amazing value and a really fun family project. The kids were actually helpful this year, and they love the mess, the grapes and especially the sticky sweet juice.
