Hi everyone, well we made it through another week. It's Friday night. It's time to sit back Relax have a little dinner have a little wine Hi everyone. I'm Nancy. Welcome to my home. Welcome to my channel. Well, welcome to my deck How's that? Welcome to my deck. Welcome to my channel. Welcome to another Friday night wine diary series having a little bit of wine, a little bit of dinner, a little bit of conversation, just fun night Alrighty, so I know I'm cheating again because I opened this wine and I didn't finish it and so I thought you know What's it opening another bottle? Let's reuse the bottle. So I've got this vampire wine again And it's a capernet sobanion and um, that was really good So looking forward to having it again tonight and what am I having for dinner? I made some soup In the craft pot and I don't know how good this is going to show See if I can get it up here for you So it's one of the Rachel Ray recipes and this one she calls it her Tuscan soup So it is some bacon about half pound bacon chopped up in here. I could have pounded the sausage in here Lots of onions Peppers I got fresh garlic in here and kind of I'd all that up in some nice olive oil Got it cooked through once that was done I put that in the craft pot and I used two quarts of chicken broth Kind of cook that all in together with some salt and pepper things like that and once that was cooked Oh and potatoes I put some potatoes in here to chop up some potatoes And then once that was done I chopped up some spinach. I said kale but I substitute it spinach So I chopped up some leaves put it in there let it wilt or wilt whatever you call that Let that wilt for a little bit turn the heat off let it sit in there and then I put in two cups Happy cream and whisk that in and this is what this is I've got Piece of garlic bread after the side probably isn't one for a cavernet soap and yarn, but you know what It is what it is the wine was open. I was gonna have this with some sharp me, but it or frozen or something I thought you know what we're just gonna do with the open bottle So and I didn't take my big calendar out here my admin calendar, but I have got another piece of candy from the 31 days of Halloween and this was from Ferreiro and it supported the children's miracle network hospitals and this is gonna be my fifth video. So I took out Number five and it's from the Kinder Collection and it's a mini and if I remember these from last year focus Please they were really really good So anyway, I hope everyone had a fabulous fabulous week Last week we were like in the 40s and it was cold It was like maybe we'd hit to 60s during the day and nights were in the high 40s little 40s And then we had a week of Solid rain nothing like New York had with their flooding that they had and the Some ways that were flooded and just everything coming to a stop We didn't have anything like that, but we just had a lot a lot of rain and then It was the last Friday or last Saturday The power it was like severe thunderstorms and The power just kept flickering and flickering and I think I was on YouTube for a little bit commenting and saying Oh, yeah, it's flickering just enough to kind of set the alarms off and do that and then bam Power was down internet was down for like six hours here So again on the weekend. This one I kind of tried to Catch up on YouTube a little bit with watching videos and commenting so that was done But I did like some candles and just kind of relaxed for a bit fell asleep and relax or that that was spice And then bam the next day we're like 91 degrees the sun's out felt fantastic and Of course I had thought it was going to be cold and so I bought the ingredients for like a pincella soup Really love that from right to right and this one was anyone So I thought I would try that because then it was kind of hot and muggy and it's like well I took the meat out. It's the frostbid. I'm gonna have to eat it So anyway sitting outside right now It's a little after midnight. It's nice and quiet. It's like I don't hear any traffic just a really slight breeze And I'm gonna try some of the soup Yeah, it was getting to be soup weather and then all of a sudden it wasn't Here's everyone Hmm Yes, it was really good Hmm, I have another quick bite Yeah, I love some of Rachel Bay's I Cookbooks A lot of them don't have a lot of ingredients It's easy to remember once you make it you don't have to you got the recipe again unless you just want to some more ideas Really good. I'm gonna have some if I cap her name it's open yarn Hmm, smells nice I smell maybe blackberries maybe some cherries Hmm something else Maybe plum I haven't think that I've had plum in a while Okay, I'm gonna go in sheers everyone He has to a great weekend. He has to great friends He has to enjoy life together sheers everyone Hmm, it's really good And tell it was aged and some nice oak barrels Little bit of dryness upon top of your palate when you when you start to Drink it. I swirl it around a little bit The flavors get to the back here in mouth starts to water from the acidity Lavors just kind of come alive So I then I'm pretty sure it's blackberries Plum cherry but it's smooth it's not vanilla I Want to say cocoa cocoa or mocha Was what's in here making it smoother. I think the bottle said it was like 13.5% alcohol so not too bad It's just a really nice flavor. It's dry, but not overly dry And I think it's not gonna go good with my soup since his sausage in there Again, it's just a nice Way to relax On a Friday night after a long hard week and I'm gonna sit back Enjoy the quiet Finish my soup finish my wine Hopefully I won't fall asleep out here, but if I do on a wake up I will help my little dessert So again, I want to thank you guys so much for taking a few minutes out of your day to spend with me It means so much to me.
