What a wonderful day Jenna and I have had so far here in Sonoma. We decided to postpone yoga until tomorrow, so after breakfast I went on a run and then we walked into town for some tea and window shopping.

We ended up at Murphy Goode Winery! (aren’t their corks pretty??)

Wine tasting at 10:30 a.m.? Sure, why not! 😉

Jenna’s friend Hardy who met us out last night works there, and was excited to give us a tasting 🙂

Obviously we had to try on their trademark Viking horn hats 😉

After our tasting, the three of us headed over to a wonderful vegetarian place in town called Cafe Gratitude for lunch.

I had the most delicious bowl of quinoa and veggies with coconut-curry sauce entitled “I am Graceful.” 🙂

After lunch, the three of us headed out to do some more tastings and enjoy the beautiful scenery 🙂

I love this picture… I was feeling creative 🙂 Not too bad for a point and shoot!

Now we’re back at Jenna’s place having a little siesta 🙂 We’re heading over to the grocery store shortly to get provisions because a few of us are making dinner at Hardy’s place tonight! The menu we have going is sounding really delicious… stay tuned 🙂

What’s your favorite type of wine? I really love Pinot Noir, although my favorite wine of the day was a Chardonnay from Murphy Goode!

    Totally jealous!! Yummy restaurant. I still like Shiraz (from Eastern Australia) the best but Pinot Noirs are also a more recent fave (esp. from the Oregon's Willamette valley!)

    Just what camera are you using these days???
    I have a Fuji Film Z20 - just a little point and shoot, but I've been impressed with it! The only time it isn't great is in dim lighting, which I why I hardly ever post when I go out to eat at restaurants! I'm saving up for a manual digital though because I LOVE taking photos :) -Anne

    My favorite wine is Red Zinfandel. My favorite winery is V. Sattui and Ravenswood. I am so envious of your wine tasting adventure. I would love to go to wine country. Love your blog.
