Creme, Creme, And Nothing But The Creme


Just yesterday, I was at the grocery store and while standing at the check-out, I noticed a display of Oreos.

Now, I don't do cookies much, but I have long been aware of "Double Stuff" Oreos. But sitting right next to the pure sugar concoction was "Mega Stuff" Oreos.

Really?

And then, this morning while perusing my fellow bloggers, kenneth in the 212 shares the above.

Looking for the perfect wine to pair with your Girl Scout cookie?

To make Girl Scout cookies truly an adult treat, Kris Margerum, Wine Director at Napa Valley’s inn and Michelin-starred restaurant Auberge du Soleil, has provided wine pairings for each cookie sold by the Girl Scouts.

"Even the simplest sweets can be paired with a fine wine," said Margerum. "I love pairing confections with exquisite vintages. They shape the flavor and take the simple experience of enjoying a cookie to an entirely new level of enjoyment."


For instance, Margerum recommends the 2007 Schramsberg Blanc de Noirs Sparkling Wine to accompany Trefoils. The creamy richness of the shortbread is balanced by the fresh lively notes of the Sparkling Wine.

Check out the other pairings on the Huffington Post.
