St. Helena

Why does it seem like 80% of this blog is made up of pictures of Taylors/Gott's??
Maybe because we go so often.

Kerry and I made a trip up to the St. Helena location and dined in the 70 degree (or so it felt) weather.
Not a bad day.

Kerry is very proud of her cheeseburger.

After lunch we walked around town and took in the (expensive) stores.
The store below is called Napa Valley Vintage Home.
It has amazing things...but at a high price!

Mmm...chocolate.

I know it's still spring but...

Look how good the fall was last year in St. Helena/Yountville!












I can't wait to see you again!

In Search of Michael Chiarello

Dining at Tra Vigne?
Hiding in a garden?

Manning the register at NapaStyle?

Braising short ribs at Bottega?


...chirp...chirp...chirp....

...he was nowhere to be found...

Except...
Sign my finger!


We drowned our sorrows in a vanilla-chocolate cupcake.
