Sauteed mushrooms, feta cheese, pesto, spinach, and mozarella on a thin flatbread crust.

 

SAUTEED MUSHROOMS

 

 Portabella mushroons sauteed in olive oil and a special seasoning. Done in cast iron skillets in our wood-fired oven.

 

 Fountain of Youth?
 

Wanted to include this great pictire of our good friends, Tom and Suzanne from Vines-2-Wines Excursions. We've known them for for at least 2 1/2 year and they still haven't shown any signs of aging.  Must be the happiness they obviously share.

1st to guess the muscian - wins free bottle of wine
 Guess the Musician - Win A Bottle of Wine 
 

I stumbled across this cartoon character and realized it has an uncanny resembelance to a musician who routinely performs at Thousand Oaks Winery. This must have been how he feels inside while singing soft rock hits at various Missouri wineries. 

 

The first person who guesses the performer wins a free bottle of wine from our winery.

 Tony & Katie Are Expecting
 

Our son Tony and his wife Katie are expecting their first child. Couldn't wait to share the good news with the extended Thousand Oaks Winery family. With a family as small as ours, every birth is an eagerly anticipoated and  blessed occassion.
