Lauren at the Virginia Wine Showcase
Apparently the IT folks at the Virginia Wine Showcase are sampling a little too much product, because I haven’t been able to get online at all. One of my fellow bloggers was kind enough to let me use his machine, so I’m taking extensive notes and will follow up this evening with a post. Sorry dudes — I was hoping to give you a more real-time account of the event, but this will have to do for now! The good news: I’m making friends. Wahooooooo!

Lauren B. McNally is a communications consultant in Washington, D.C., who spends most of her free time exploring culinary and oenological pursuits with friends. She hails from Maine and graduated from Bowdoin College, completing additional study at the University of Cambridge in the U.K.(where she found the dining hall cuisine rather offensive and repulsive, as opposed to that of the top-ranked Bowdoin Dining Service). Her palate is ever-evolving but she includes California Zinfandels, Cotes du Rhone, and white wines from Burgundy and the Loire Valley among her current favorites. Her least favorite wine-related phrase: “I don’t like _.” Lauren also enjoys cooking Italian and French cuisine, and has an unnatural obsession with Gorgonzola and pancetta.
