Red, pink, and another Rosé


We gave Atkins farm a visit a few days ago. What met our eyes the moment we walked in were srawberries on sale, and bright, blooming colors were just too hard to resist to plop a few into the cart. Despite my recent resolution to save money on unnecessary splurges(I mean, they do have frozen strawberries at the smoothie bar at Val) it would have been a tragedy for me to leave those fresh, fragrant, succulent strawberries behind(and its only frozen! a total different level from fresh). 
Somebody was still on a rage for a decent Rosé, so we took a chilled Oregon A-Z Rosé with us outside to enjoy the a bit windy, but spring-scented weather. More fresh and dry on the palate, it was a perfect match with the strawberries, apples, and a piece of brie at room temperature, creamy and oozing. The Wholefoods guy was right. When we asked for half the portion it was displayed, he swore that we would come back for the other half. There is no such thing as too much of this....
