It's a Pizza Party...


The Toasted Hostess are shaking up the norm and sharing the fun of food prep with
the folks at my nest little gathering.

paired with a couple of  classy Canadians and a very sexy Australian…

Valentine Wine


Love is in the air....

The Toasted Hostess is embracing the romance of wine.."Valentine Wine" brings you something sweet and something else that's sparkling....

The Toasted Hostess and Molly Dooker shake it up...

Do The Shake..


Sarah and Sparky Marquis set out on a mission to find a way in which allergens for sulfites could be eliminated…
They came up with this idea..using nitrogen gas as a natural preservative, will do the trick…
in order  to restore the young wines back to their full flavor profile...
you have to do the Molly Dooker Shake…

The Toasted Hostess put a new twist on wine tasting …instead of the proper, See, Smell, Sip and Spit…
Here is a tastier approach for all… Food Pairing… Food and wine pairing is an extremely personal thing…
Next time you are breaking bread, put out two different wines and let your guest choose for themselves…



Francis Coppola

Play Francis Coppola Merlot

2006 Merlot....

....Diamond Collection Blue Label is a balanced and bold wine with a subtle smokiness and some leather.."Think fifties supper club with over-sized booths, hearth food and lots of ambience.... thick meaty sauces, pork and lamb or a medium rare steak fresh of the fire.... hhhhhmmmmmm

This is not normally my preferred taste, but let me tell you what.... this one blows my hair back...
