Gourmet Dinner Fundraiser at my church

[Auburnwine]

If I think of it, I will post the link to next year's auction catalogue. It is an absolutely delightful event. Our minister is Isabel Allende's sister-in-law and this year I got two signed first editions. Waaay cool.

For several auctions, I have made a very inspiring (or at least lubricating) "For-Bidding Punch."

For my wine tastings (when I am dealing with true novices), I always get a jug wine and have them taste it blind next to a decent wine: "What do you like or not like about this wine? Compare and contrast." It's the best intro to basic tastings that I know.
