    Thank you. Most modern wines are corked with synthetic corks or screw on caps. I used to think that the screw on caps were low class, but actually they provide a better seal and maintain the wine better. The synthetic corks (or natural cork that is shredded and formed - basically the same thing) do a better job than natural cork. In this instance, synthetic or engineered is better than natural.

    Agree with you. The '91 Leconfield Coonawarra cab is very tasty. albeit with less fruit than some would like after 23 years.

    Sorry, but it is important to maintain wine properly. For those with natural corks, they need to be kept moist so as not to allow oxygen to incur and degrade the wine. Also, need to maintain a proper temp so that the wine doesn't continue to ferment. If either of these two factors isn't maintained, it only good for vinegar.

    Aww, thanks! And pie it is!

    CRANBERRY PEACH TART

    1 tart crust, make sure it's a good dense, crisp crust. I like hazelnut flour for this. It imparts a wonderful flavor.

    1 1/2 lbs fresh peaches, or 20oz frozen peaches, thawed
    1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed if frozen
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 cup all purpose flour
    1/2 tsp nutmeg, freshly grated if you have it is best
    1/4 tsp salt

    TOPPING

    2/3 cup all purpose flour
    1/2 firmly packed dark brown sugar
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
    1/3 cup butter, softened (can substitute with margarine)
    1/2 cup slivered almonds

    Preheat oven to 425*. Bake tart shell for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce heat to 375*.
    Toss filling gently and pour into prepared tart shell.
    Combine all topping ingredients EXCEPT for the slivered almonds. Then gently stir in the almonds and sprinkle over the tart filling.
    Bake for 40-50 minutes. Cover for the last 15 minutes with foil to prevent over browning.
    Cool and enjoy!

    If they didn't take care of them properly, they're probably only good for making salad dressing.

    I can recommend the JosephsBrau Bock from Trader Joes, (assuming you like malty beer on occasion.) Yuengling is a great thirst quencher ;^)
    I have been making beer off and on since the 90's ... when I am in one place long enough to buy the gear (again.)

    Thanks for reminding me. There are some late 70's (and 80's) cabs I left in my friend's cellar and they are still there. Hmmm, I think there is a '90 Groth magnum in there, too.
    My friend and I were just wondering what to drink with the financiers....

    If anyone is in LA, you might try the excellent financiers at the Commisary in Burbank. (The music there is iffy though.)

    I have to leave the state to get it. CT doesn't sell it. So I can drive to NY to get it, or when I visit my family in Pittsburgh. So yes, I only buy what is made in PA :-)

    Watch the little tendrils that the cucumber plants shoot out. They grab onto either any vertical stake or the ground every foot or so. They need something to attach to. When something like a spinal cord is cut, there is nothing for the nerve to grab onto.

    Don't get Yuengling down in Tampa (might be available elsewhere in Florida, but I know it's in Tampa). They use local water and the water is terrible. Only get the real PA version.
