Kevin's Cookin' Dinners

The story: I sit in front of my computer a lot. My work is computer related and some of my hobbies are computer related. My wife suggested that I find a hobby that was not computer related. We were learning about Washington State and Oregon wines and wineries and food pairings, and were becoming very interested exploring the possibilities of good food and wine. I decided to learn more about food, wine, and flavor by creating my own menus with wine pairings and hosting plated dinners for 8-10 people. You need to be challenged a bit, right? This has become a thoroughly enjoyable hobby, and it provides a wonderful excuse to taste the local wines and visit the wineries: I call it research for my menu planning.

We've had several of these dinners since 2009 and they are great fun.

We do not have foodie photos for most of the dinners. Just menus for the for them; I was too busy cooking and serving the food to remember to take pictures.
