    Mused after…Going to Miamiville Trailyard along the bike trail. Technically in Montgomery, it is minutes away from Loveland, Terrace Park, Indian Hill and of course, Montgomery. It has a large selection of draft beers and the usual pub food. Can sit inside or out. Again, a fun place to try if you are enjoying the bike trail.

    Wine Headaches

    According to a 2013 study, more than a third of wine drinkers report occasional headaches from the wine, not overindulgence. It may come from a single glass and red or white wine. Sulfites have been studied and found not to be the cause. There are two categories that are being explored.

    Phenolic flavonoids include molecules that give wine its color, flavor, and mouthfeel from the skin, seeds, and stems. Unfortunately, they also affect enzymes that trigger the release of serotonin which is linked to headaches.

    Biogenic amines are produced during the making of wine or fermentation. This is linked to histamines and tyramine which again can cause headaches. These amines are also in aged cheeses, cured meats and dried fruits.

    (Did You Know? Those who get migraines are more susceptible to wine headaches.)

    The causes of the headaches are probably multifactorial. It is not only the alchemy of the wine but hormonal changes, stress, sleep problems, foods ingested with the wine and even the weather can play a factor. Each individual needs to put together their own factors and types of wine that precipitates a headache and try to avoid them.

    LA DOLCE VITA, JOIE DE VIVRE:
    Chicken, Tomatoes, and Onions

    While tomatoes maybe on their way out of season, this simple recipe is delicious and great for hot weather as summer seems to be lingering.

    Whisk together 1 cup olive oil, half a cup of red wine vinegar, 1.5 tsp of oregano, .5 tsp salt and .25 tsp. of pepper. Add 12 oz. of heirloom tomatoes cut in wedges, 8 oz. cherry tomatoes halved, and 1 thinly sliced medium red onion. Marinate for 30-60 minutes. In the meantime, grill 8 (4 oz.) chicken cutlets seasoned with salt and pepper. Let rest after grilling and slice as desired. Transfer to serving platter and spoon tomato, onion mixture over top with marinating liquids.
