Good For The Soul Chicken Noodle Soup – To Cure What Ails Us {Recipe}

If there was ever a time for homemade chicken noodle soup, it is now: it’s cold out, two of my kids are sick with head colds – one of whom is on a tight deadline to finish his college applications, there are innocent people being brutally and violently attacked by law enforcement officials in North Dakota but they […]

Spring Vegetable Soup and the Beauty of a Good Stock

Last Monday I was feeling a bit groggy, even by late morning. It had been a festive but busy weekend with maybe just a little bit too much wine. I knew I was facing down a busy week and needed to find strength to power through. At times like this, I like to look for strength in […]

I remember longing to wear boots and sweaters to school in September and sweltering if I did! My daughter struggled with the same dilemma today. Here in Oregon, public school starts […]

Green Soup – kind of like a smoothie, but better

I am not a huge fan of green smoothies. I know they’re all the rage with heath-concious people like myself. All of that raw green goodness is guaranteed to help you lose weight, have more energy, enjoy a better mood, have better sex and live forever. Wow! What’s not to like? Meh. I don’t know. […]

Hello!

Hi, I'm Maria. My husband and I own a winery in downtown McMinnville, the heart of Oregon's spectacular Willamette Valley.

Lucky for me I get to cook for the people I love, throw parties and pour a little Pinot. Nothing makes me happier than gathering people around my table and serving them food that nourishes both body and soul.

People often tell me that I'm living their dream life. And truthfully, I'm living mine too.

But let's be real, it's still life.
