A few weeks ago the lovely folks at The Meat House contacted me a few weeks ago to see if I would be interested in trying out their turkey for the holiday. I said heck yes!

The Meat House, which originally started in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, has a location right near my job in Coolidge Corner in Brookline. When they opened their first store their goal was to bring back that old neighborhood butcher feeling. You would know where your meat was coming from and who had butchered it for you.

It was really easy to call and reserve my turkey. Pick-up was a breeze too. When I picked my turkey up I also checked out all the gourmet goodies they had to offer in the store. Everything from marinated chicken and spices to wine and beer.

In addition to the turkey I also picked up some marinated chicken, turkey tips, and steak tips for a friend.

I’ll definitely be heading back to The Meat House next year for some gobble gobble goodness.

In addition to a big ol’ turkey, The Meat House was kind enough to also offer me a $50 gift card to give away to one of you!

Giveaway: Win a Gas Gift Card from Robert Mondavi!

by agirlandhermutt on July 24, 2012

One of the main points of me starting this blog a little over 2 years ago was to talk about my love of wine. That love has developed over the years to include great craft beer and a well mixed cocktail. However, wine is still #1 in my heart. Wine doesn’t have to be expensive or overly complex to enjoy. It just has to be well made!

Robert Mondavi Private Selection is the perfect example of wines that are meant to be enjoyed at meals, with friends and all those times in between. I know I have enjoyed my fair share (check out my Napa tour and last year’s RM Wine Tour!).

Robert Mondavi Private Selection produces Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Fume Blanc, Syrah, Zinfandel and Riesling. These wines – from light and lively to full-bodied and concentrated – have approachable bright fruit expression and exceptional balance, as well as great depth and texture. All are crafted to be enjoyed upon release.

This summer Robert Mondavi Private Selection (RMPS) is hitting the road to take you on a virtual tour of California’s Central Coast to showcase the area that sources 100% of the RMPS grapes. Throughout the rest of the month and into August RMPS will be showcasing local finds throughout the Central Coast, including restaurants, breathtaking views, and other hidden gems in the area. Think Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives! As they take a tour down the Coast they are bringing you with them via Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Pinterest. Oh, and don’t forget some great food pairing match-ups on their website too!

Summer is the perfect time for a road trip, but honestly…gas is freakin’ expensive! RMPS would love to have us all along in real life for their Coastal Tour, but since we can’t all make it there they are offering one lucky A Girl & Her Mutt reader a $25 gas card to take their own RMPS Central Coast Tour inspired road trip.
