Always in June. What is there not to love about the pig and pinot noir? And, the most delicious bacon ice cream- ever!

Bacon ice cream??? Interesting.
I don't know much about it, but I just found this Napa Valley event calendar, which could be helpful as well for those of you who are willing to make the drive...

Oh, thanks @StephSF! And, Fall Fest is October 9th this year. A definite MUST for any foodie.

Awesome, sounds like a great event that with a great partner charity (Meals on Wheels, if you haven't read it).
If I weren't out of town, I would consider signing up just to find out what an "Eco Cocktail" competition is. Hmm...
That's okay, keep it mind for next year. It's always the weekend that kicks off Fleet Week in SF.
Aaaah, Fleet Week. I remember that from New York - how fun! There's even a Sex and the City episode about it - although I didn't know there was one in SF, as well...
@StephSF - oh yeah, they hit ALL the big cities. Be prepared from October 9th- 15th and you'll not only see Navy boys but also the Blue Angels.
I'm getting SUPER excited for FallFest next weekend! Woohoo!
Hmm...I may have to check out some of the Fleet Week events...what are Blue Angels?
@StephSF - the Blue Angels are the pilots that perform tricks in the air with their airplanes.

How's Fleet Week, @Tracypie? Have you been to FallFest yet? My friend saw the Blue Angels today and thought it was pretty cool...haven't made it up there myself yet :-/
