20140711-104929-38969271

I celebrated my hubby’s birthday the other day.
I decided to give him
・presents
・dinner I make

I put these things in a wooden basket.

・wine I bought in Carmel. Zinfandel.
・Honey, pate and white truffle mustered I bought at a French market in San Mateo.

The Gourmet Market

We love wine, especially before I was pregnant, we had one bottle a day every day!

We like zinfandel a lot which is a kind of grapes from California.

About honey, he likes Orange and Acacia so I bought them.

And I got pate by 3 dollers! The expiration date is almost! so we have to have it soon though, but looks so good

And I bought white truffle mustered for the first time because the store staff recommended it. This is good for stakes!

I’m curious about the taste!

The basket is from a World market.
