The clouds overhead just made it all seem kind of dark and moody and Godfather-ish! :-)<br /><br />The flowers were all looking so perky and still drenched with color! My summer flowers have begun to fade already, so that's nice to see. The cluster of grapes in the 1st photo reminds me of the clusters we would have on our vines in the orchard on my parents' property when I was a kid. The orchard was rather unceremoniously ripped out to make way for a swimming pool when I was a teenager. That was one VERY unhappy day for me, particularly since I don't swim and the pool would be of zero use to me!<br /><br />We have a lot of wineries here in Missouri, and a couple of them within 10 miles of our home. (We also have a couple of pretty famous breweries!) I created the decor for an event at the closest winery, and it was a real treat to see the property. It was in March a couple of years ago, so the grapes weren't on the vines. Still, neat to see the neat rows and all the barrels and stuff.<br /><br />Sorry your grilled cheese wasn't all it should have been. Knowing the ingredients as you do, I'll bet if you were to whip that up at home you could beat it out by leaps and bounds!!!Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1820469895385780659.post-15074325845481985112014-08-16T18:15:44.107-04:002014-08-16T18:15:44.107-04:00We have so many wineries on Long Island, but sadly...We have so many wineries on Long Island, but sadly we never seem to be able to get out to them.
