Wine or Dessert Suggestions

Whole Foods has some AWESOME individual desserts - I have had their cheesecake, some kind of ridiculous chocolate death (or named something similar) and these fruit things that were like a little pie with berries piled on top. They are about $3 or $4 each, but if you only have to buy for 3 or 4 people, that would fit in your price range & be extra special. I'd just go browse the dessert section & pick something that looks yummy. I would think you can't go wrong.

I don't have Traders Joe so I can't help there (very sad).

If you came to my dinner party with a Trader Joe's Opera Cake I would be your friend forever.

That sounds good, could you describe it? I have a TJs a block away.

My favorite wine for about $10 a bottle is Ecco Domani. Their Merlot and Pinot Grigio are sooooo good and not dry or heavy. You can get it at any grocery store.

Here is the website: www.eccodomani.com

It comes in a dark blue box in the frozen section with all the other yummy-looking desserts. It consists of lots of thin layers (I think there are 7) of cake, chocolate, and I want to say there's either espresso or coffee in it too but very subtle. One look at the nutrition facts is enough to give you a heart attack but mmm...it's so light and fluffly yet rich enough at the same time.
