So I just found out yesterday that Im going to a Wine Maker Dinner at Club 33 this Sunday evening and John Lasseter will be there because its his winery!
The same friend who got me in for lunch at the Club the day after my Birthday was able to get me into this dinner! Evidently Club 33 has these Member events and the member can bring a certain number of guests. Well this event has a party maximum size of four, me and DP get to attend with our friends! When I found out about the possibility of going to the dinner I called DVC MS and waitlisted for that Sunday night, and amazingly enough the waitlist came through. Since we were already staying Friday and Saturday nights, adding a Sunday for an evening this special just seemed like a no brainer! However I didn't want to post anything about it until I was sure I was going, didn't want to jinx anything!
According to the Food & Wine schedule, John Lasseters Winery is presenting tastings at the Festival Friday, Saturday and Sunday and his Wine Maker is doing bottle signings, so I guess after all that he gets to come to Club 33 and have dinner.
What a magical way to close out the weekend!

How exciting!
Also: is it just me or is Guy Fieri really tan?!
I love Guy but, a person that is as busy as he is has to be using fake tan. How else would he have a tan? When does he find time to spend in the sun?
It does look like a fake tan, sort of orangeish...
I always thought his tan was from all the time spent in his convertable driving the country I think he has white lines on his face from his sunglasses!
You are so lucky to be going to Club 33, I want to go one of these days!

Alison!
I can't believe I was at the Keegan Gerhard Sweet Sunday last year and didn't know you! Aaarrrrggghhhhhh!
However, I am going to Taste this year with some friends. I will also be a scooter girl--how/where did you get your tray? How did you attach it to the scooter?
I was also wistful because my friends Dawn and Bob were at the Napa Rose cooking school last year in 2009 and enjoyed that menu very much. Unfortunately Dawn got the swine flu and passed away in November so it brought back memories because I saw a lot of them that weekend and reminded me that she would probably have been out here again.
Anyway--we will have to meet up at Taste!
I like my steaks RED in the middle, it made me smile that you said yours were a little over done
I'm excited to read all about your F&W experience! Have a great time at the Cooking School tomorrow!!!
Great pics!!!! Love that you said your ribeye was a little overdone. We like ours rare too! Food looks delicious. Our first stop when we hit So Cal will be In n Out.
I like my steak bloody too. I hope cooking class is fun.
Alison....I'm hungry! Off to lunch for this Aussie! Your extravaganza looks scrumptious
What camera are you using for the food porn shots and what settings are you using? I'm hoping to take a lot of food shots myself...
