We’re newlyweds living the Napa Valley dream- if that dream consists of crazy hours, insanely low restaurant salaries, and constant chaos…

We’re not foodies, we’re food industry.  Clinton cooks for a reknowned (but heretofore unnamed because of contractual obligations) restaurant group in Yountville and I made the switch to the front of the house at a well-known (can you guess?) resort in Calistoga.  It’s very likely that he’ll be a great chef someday.  It’s a little less likely that I’ll be a master sommelier but you can watch me try.   For now, we’ll aim not to bore you with too much work-related  blather.  Instead we’ll tell you about what we do for fun- gardening, beer making, salume curing, and, of course, cooking and tasting.
