Hello everyone and welcome back to another blog post on ~Foodie with a Passion~! Happy Tuesday everyone and I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend because Hubby and I did! As you read on my Saturday Post last week, we were celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary. But before we get started on the adventures we had, remember to click subscribe so you don't miss another Foodie Fun 🤩

Alrighty!! So our adventure started on Friday; we drove down south to the next state and enjoyed some tax-free Black Friday shopping. I picked up some Christmas presents and a few things for us and the house. Overall, good shopping trip. When we arrived at our destination, food and drinks were the first thing on our minds.

Hubby's Beer Flights
Me- Bacon Jam Burger 🍔 and Extra Crispy Fries 🍟

If you've never had bacon jam, highly recommend!

Hubby - Salmon with Micro Greens over Rice

Day 1 was a success! I got myself a carton of Rosé to enjoy in the hotel room that I took a couple sips from. Spain origin, it was delish!

Pinot Gris for me🍷 Hubby had a flight of reds

Day 2 started with a hike and a few wineries. This was from Winery #1; we never went to the second spot I researched but I found another one so I got to taste a couple more wines. Hubby found a cidery that he got to try a few ciders.

Dinner was at a fancy place; the deep fried stuff were off limits for me since they use the same oil for their halibut almandine. That was ok though. I had enough fried foods I really don't want any for a while. Anyhow, they were nice enough to accommodate us and serve us the sautéed calamari that way we still got to enjoy an appetizer.

Me - Braised Lamb Shanks, Roasted Potatoes and Veggies

Hubby took a pic of his dinner and I don't have that one but he had the Beef Medallions and Shrimp for a surf and turf. they brought out 2 free glasses of champagne for us too. I didn't eat any but I got the strawberry on top 🍓

Day 3 we didn't take a whole bunch of pictures and we just enjoyed ourselves. Time to go home back to the kitties 🐱 we did do another hike and saw some waterfalls and nature.

Anyhow, let me know in the comments below what weekend getaway you recently went on and until then…signing off!
