BONNE ANNEE!

Happy New Year everyone! May you have a year full of great wines, great food and great recipes!

Do you have any new resolutions for 2011? We don't like the "resolution revolution" each year but, for once, we have some advices you may keep as you want and as long as you can...

- Shop as locally as you can: eat local, grass-fed meat, support a local farmer.
- reading cookbooks is great, but cooking is better! Try at least to cook a new recipe each week, something you've never had before.
- When you cook, double recipies, freeze the food you don't eat and pull it out the next time you're not up for cooking. It will keep you from falling into the fast-food routine.
- Treat yourself, with moderation  ;) even if you are on diet, eat something you do love and savor it. Good mood guaranteed!
- Drink more water, and for your kids it's better to keep the milk for breakfast or snack only.
By the way, there is a great website where you can track the milk you're drinking: http://whereismymilkfrom.com/
-Regularly clean your fridge/freezer out and use plastic boxes. Organize your pantry, it helps to clear the mind, and you might find some stuff that you forgot you had.
- Have a romantic dinner in our French Restaurant once a month ;)

In fact, eat well, be well!
