MFWT Turns One

This one almost passed me by. But, for some reason, I was just thinking that it was somewhere around this time last year – I can’t believe it’s March already – that I started up with the blogging thing. Sure enough, today McDuff’s Food & Wine Trail turns one. My very first post, a quick announcement for a wine dinner I was scheduled to conduct at a local restaurant, went live exactly one year ago today.

On this momentous occasion, I’d like to give a big shout out of thanks to all of you: readers, fellow bloggers, commenters and even the casual passers-by. It’s been a fun year and your participation helps to make it all worthwhile. Cheers!

  4. Thanks, Debs and Anon.

    Good question, PhilaD. I suppose it is good cause for celebration. There's a bottle of Huet Vouvray Petillant Brut hanging out in my auxiliary wine fridge that might just be the perfect thing. I'll be sure to report back.

  7. BG, Bill, Thanks so much for being such loyal readers. It might be a little late for the Huet tonight but I'll find a reason soon enough.

  15. Thanks, boys, this writer writes with wistful well wishes. St. Mambert's in the queue, lambs 'n' all. It might take a while though. Gasnier, Ampelidae, Cruzeau and Gachon are all up first, not to mention the current stuff.
