Sunny Anderson - FOOD NETWORK

 Sunny Anderson, the beloved host of Food Network’s Cooking for Real and Home Made in America, is now a cookbook author.  Sunny’s Kitchen just hit the New York Times Bestseller List. Sunny draws on her family roots in the Carolinas, her travels across the globe in a military family, and her years catering while a radio DJ. Her recipes are as bold and spicy as her palette and she welcomes you into her kitchen with an array of comfort foods. Sunny gives you the whole world in just a few bites: her southern Slow ‘n’ Low Ribs, a bit of Germany in her currywurst-inspired Pork Burgers with Spicy Ketchup, Asian influences in Spicy Noodle Bowls, and a classic Shrimp and Andouille Boil from New Orleans.


George Jarkesy  -  YAMHILL VALLEY VINEYARDS WINERY

The Estate - Here we are after 30 years, still at it.  Established in 1983 by Denis Burger and Elaine McCall, Yamhill Valley Vineyards is the oldest winery in the McMinnville AVA.  The McMinnville AVA has something unique to offer and stands apart from the other AVA's in Oregon.  If you are looking for a Pinot Noir that packs a little more punch than your typical strawberries and earth - you have come to the right place.  We are located just off Highway 18, it's the perfect place to stop on your way to or from the coast, or just as a day trip from Portland or Salem metro area.  We have over 100 acres of vineyard, do everything from growing to bottling on site, and that is what makes us a great value as well as having old fashioned quality.  We work to make constant improvements, and you never know what might be changing next so come and visit our friendly staff for a tasting ($5 for the normal flight and an additional $10 for our premier Tall Poppy Pinot Noir and a taste of Mondillo - our sister winery in the southern hemisphere).
