Friends, we’ve finally made it. After a relentless winter that brought wind chills rivaling Minnesota’s, frigid temperatures that turned our bays into a giant bowl of concrete soup, and snowstorms that buried beach chairs no one bothered to bring indoors, early spring has arrived like a long-lost friend.

After enduring such a long, harsh winter, I’m sure we are all looking forward to some time together with friends and family to enjoy some wonderful holiday meals. Whether you are serving classics such as lamb, fish, ham, or veggies, you are probably serving wine with your meals.
