Any idea where exactly in the Okanagan the Fairview is from? I'd assume either the Black Sage Bench or Golden Mile?

Great afternoon, Jenise and your beef appy was great - you might want to describe it for people.

Tasty at room temp, attractive, and easy to eat with one's fingers--perfect garden food and good with red wines.

As for the cards, we have been known to retire to the eating area for a restoring game of crib and a snifter or two before once more venturing onto the field of battle. With 7 people it was too much fun to spectate, to be going anywhere else (and besides, you'd probably have caught me skulking off through the rhodos with that platter of Flannery fare under my arm.....)
