Summer Beverages

I'm recommending these this summer:

Red-and-Yellows (in honor of Spain)--Fill glasses halfway with pomegranate or raspberry sparkling soda or rosé sparkling wine, add a scoop of lemon sorbet. Decorate with some fresh raspberries or a lemon slice. Serve with a spoon.

Picnic Wines--Fetzer Valley Oaks Sauvignon Blanc, crisp; J. Lohr Monterey White Riesling, sweet, both under $9 and are refreshing for picnics.

¡Salud!

We Support Historic Preservation

At FANDANGO we support historic preservation. Our office is located in an older Houston neighborhood, part of the larger Montrose neighborhood. The historic homes here were built from the late 1890s to the 1940s. Our office is on the lower floor of a 1922 house. Which is why we support historic preservation!

We have provided catering for many neighborhood events and recently committed to donating refreshments for a planned 2010 home tour of our neighborhood and two other adjoining neighborhoods, all built around the same time. Beautiful old houses, trees, and flower gardens.

July 4 Grilling!


We love Penzey's BBQ for July 4th and all summer long grilling!


For chicken or pork:
Make a rub with BBQ 3000 and chopped fresh herbs, a little lemon or lime juice, a little chopped garlic, if you want it spicy a little jalapeño or chipotle. Great flavor!

For burgers:
Mix BBQ 3000 with powder ranch dressing mix, fresh or dried herbs, a little Parmesano or Italian bread crumbs, an egg or two, if you like it spicy a little salsa picante, shape into patties. Dynamite!

Happy Summer Grilling!
