Thanksgiving Happenings at HB

It has been a long time since we have written a blog but it seems with so many things going on this time of year a blog is a good place to put it all in one place.

In October, Bonnie went for her annual trip for "crush" in Napa and came home with many ideas for new and fabulous wines. She has put these wines on the front end of the wine aisle with great notes and of course her recommendations for Holiday wines to be used as gifts or on your dinner table.
Some of the new wines Bonnie is recommending are from the following vineyards*:
Chateau Montelina
Keenan
St. Clement (Of course!)
Louis Martini

Bill Harlan's Bond Estates (these can be special ordered)

*Another blog will be dedicated just to Bonnie's trip and the specific wines she has brought in.


Now on Thursday, November 18 (tomorrow) from 5pm to 7pm, there is a wine tasting along with a dinner to sample with the wines. The theme of course is Thanksgiving with a lovely selection of appropriate wines for a turkey dinner. The dinner we are serving is of course a turkey dinner with a side salad and desert served all for $10.99 (the tasting is as usual free!)Call to make a reservation 967-5762.

We are still taking orders for a complete Thanksgiving dinner for 6 if you are not inclined to prepare the meal yourself. It comes with a large turkey, cranberry walnut stuffing, herbed mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans almondine, gravy, cranberry orange relish and rolls. You can get it on Wednesday and just heat it up on Thursday (and pretend you made it!!) or pick it up on Thursday morning all hot and ready to eat. Please call to order by Friday, November 19. 967-5762

Also we are still taking orders for pies, until Monday afternoon, that can be picked up as late as noon on Thanksgiving. Choose from pumpkin, apple, blueberry or mincemeat pies. We also have frozen pies in our new freezer that can be baked in less than an hour and will make your house smell as good as it does here at HB!!

Our store hours for Thanksgiving are 6am to 12noon.
