    I haven’t tried La Linda Tempranillo yet, but frankly I am NOT surprised at all. Over the past year, I have become a hu-you-you-YOUge fan of Argentina. I’m telling ya, these days, for the CKCers, or for the PAPKICCers like me (Paying Alimony Plus Two Kids In College Crowd), Argentina is WHERE IT’S AT. How many times do I have to mention Vina Antigua’s red (50% Bonarda, 50% Sangiovese), the BEST $5 wine you will ever find. I have 6 different friends who after trying it, asked me for a case of it – you should test it yourself.

    QOTD: I always mix 2-4 different cereals together in a big Rubbermaid bulk container. Right now, I think my mix is a blend of Kellogg’s Smart Start, Post’s multigrain BlueBerry Morning, Post’s Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds, and Giant Store’s house (generic) brand of Granola. Cuz when it comes to cereal, I’m like a Bordeaux wine blender, trying to achieve the ultimate balance of all the different cereal varietals.

    The Oak Monster t-shirt was awesome – great design.

    I make my own cereal:granola with maple syrup and hazelnuts(and flaxseeds, too!)
    Much better than that boxed stuff. Great aroma as it bakes..
    Thanks for the show, entertaining as always… Think I’ll try to scare up some La Linda Tempranillo.

    Awesome episode. QOD Just the Clusters Maple Pecan Granola (Trader Joes)–take a Sniff! Oatmeal and sugar explode on the nose.

    Love the Mendoza wines for all the reasons that you mentioned. Great values and a real surprise to most of our friends and guests.

    Really enjoyed the Roddy Piper piece, too.
