After covering a full year of various wine varietals, we're going to start learning about other libations and the foods they pair well with. This month, we're using sangria as our transitional wine. Come on over with a tapas or Spanish inspired dish to share potluck style and I'll take care of the various sangrias!

Here's what's coming to the table so far:

Ceviche
Feta cheese Tampenade
Queso de Cabra con Tomate
Spanish Omelette
Dates wrapped in bacon
Chips and avacado dip
Patatas Bravas
Seafood Paella
Pulpo a la Vinagreta
Pork & Chicken Chimichurri rice
Empanadas
Tarta de Santiago
Passion fruit trifle


The $5 event covers servingware and various sangria.

       Abbie's sangria was killer! There were so many amazing dishes that it was hard to decide what to eat first! I want Howard on my team next time. He's a great trash talker! 
    •  AMAZING spread! Kudos to everyone who attended and their fabulous contributions. We barely had enough room for all our dishes but of course, we managed to fit it all in our stomachs :)
