I got this idea for this pear bruschetta from an appetizer that Rachael and I had at Urban Wineworks in Oklahoma City. It’s a sweeter twist on the classic. This recipe only takes 4 ingredients and a few minutes to prepare, and it’s super yummy! (It happens to be vegetarian!)… Continue reading

A couple weeks ago I found myself with a bottle of wine and it wasn’t until I went to drink it that I realized… I don’t own a corkscrew. Cork and no corkscrew… what to do?
