This printable coupon is valid for a free wine tasting for two at Woodland Hill Winery in Delano, MN (regularly $5 per person). You’ll taste a selection of nine wines they are featuring that day. Enjoy the wine while sitting inside the tasting room or outside under the the gazebo.  There’s no requirement you buy wine but I’m sure you’ll feel at least a bit pressured after the tasting so perhaps plan on going to the winery when you need to stock up!

Coupon expires June 29, 2011.

Click here for inexpensive DIY cheesemaking kits.  Kits are designed for making everything from parmesan, cheddar, mozzarella, chevre, romano and more.  The cheese making kits are sold by Wild Dance Vineyards of Delano, MN.  I know a few people who make their own cheese and say it’s pretty easy.  I’m not sure anyone can call themselves a “foodie” until they’ve tried making their own cheese.  For those new to cheese making, these kits may be a good place to start.  Nothing tastes better than fresh cheese!

One of the easiest cheeses to make is ricotta.  Perhaps, give this one easy recipe a shot and see how it goes before advancing to harder cheeses.
