    New Winery in Claremore 

    Roberdes Family Vineyards and Winery in Claremore, OK is now OPEN. Come in for free tastings and a warm welcome from Mark and Teresa Roberdes. See their vineyard of hybrid wine grapes: Chambourcin, Traminette and Frontenac.  Here are a few of the wines they offer:

    Riesling
    California, 2008
    Fruity, floral and inviting. From fried chicken to smoked meat or fish to spicy Chinese, a glass of Riesling will pair perfectly $12

    Peach
    2008
    The very best thing about the Livesay Orchards Farmer’s Market is the delicious, juicy and sweet peaches. Grown in Porter, the Peach Capital of Oklahoma, these peaches were pressed to make a sweet, crisp wine $12

    Cabernet Sauvignon
    California, 2008
    A full bodied, tannic wine, with a touch of sweetness. Think big, meaty dishes and skip the fish. Perfect for beef, but any grilled meat will stand up to the myriad of flavors. Also good with cheese made from cows milk such as Gouda or Gorgonzola $15

    Cabernet_Sauvignon_Gaillac

    The Roberdes Family Vineyards & Winery is located at:
    20570 E. 460 rd.
    Claremore, Okla. 74019

    POMEGRANATES! 

    Last night we were at Sams Club just looking around at the produce and I noticed these huge pomegranetes. They were almost the size of my head! Mmm…

    Huge Pomegranates

    Last weekend I learned the proper way to cut a pomegranate:

      By the way you are holding them they do look about the size of your head! Funny! What does one do it one of them?

      I saw the poms at the store the other day when I was shopping for a fruit to put in my home made habanero hot sauce. Ended up going with mangos. After watching the link you supplied on the proper way to cut a pom, I’m really glad I went with the mango. Seems like a lot of work then you have to press the seeds. Am I wrong?

      • Whitney Shae 6:57 pm on November 5, 2009 Permalink | Reply

        Lol….Ya it does take a little work, but the little seeds are so fun!

        Mmm…your habanero hot sauce sounds tasty!

      BTW – that is a hilarious pic!

        You should have a contest on who can come up with the funniest caption for that pic – haha

      I would put some chunky red sauce on it. Pop some garlic bread on the side and BAM!

    I am realizing that I am acquiring a taste for wine. I really do enjoy it! It really compliments a meal and makes for a good conversation.

    Tonight, Brian and I met with Mark from Tulsa Wine Club, and Amanda “The Cheese Wench”. They are both great people and awesome foodies around Tulsa.

    Check out the classes at the Stock Pots! Great place, great cooks, and good conversation!

    Tonight we had Potato encrusted Tilapia topped with garlic mashed potatoes and a side salad! Mmm…so good! Brian is a pretty good fish cooker…

    I just had a kids meal from Chick-Fil-A today. I know…it’s a chain, but an awesome one that has great principles and values.

    I have been wondering for a while now…Is there is a sauce on the market comparable to Chick-Fil-A-Sauce?

    I would pay good money for that…

     
    • Brian 4:25 pm on October 19, 2009 Permalink | Reply

      Heck yeah! I love love love Chick-Fil-A!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can we get some after we workout??????

      • Whitney Shae 4:39 pm on October 19, 2009 Permalink | Reply

        Mmm…don’t tempt me.
