Taste of Texas – Mac and Cheese for the WIN(e)
This Taste of Texas event celebrates my favorite comfort food, Macaroni and Cheese, on Sunday, 23-February-2025, one session at 1:00 pm, and will feature three (3) variations of mac and cheese accompanied by six (6) delicious wines from the TWC winery partners, Brennan Vineyards, Lost Oak Winery, and McPherson Cellars. It will be fun to compare and contrast the rich, creamy flavors in the bowls to the bright flavors in the bottles.

Mac and cheese is now found on menus of almost every type of food establishment – food trucks, snack stands, and restaurants that focus on family fare as well as high end cuisine. Continue »
