About champagne
It seems I always throw away a partial bottle of champagne after I entertain. How long does champagne last after it is opened? What can I do with it? Could it go into French 75s a week later? Wasting good champagne is so hard to do.

The basic formula for a French 75 cocktail calls for gin, cointreau, squeezed lime juice, sugar and finished with sparkling wine. Stirred not shaken.
Or use it to make thirschfield's candies: http://www.food52.com/recipes/7145_spiced_cider_jellies

Then use it for salad dressing. Mustard, dijon, herbs, the champagne.
This is also good to use with beaujolais nouveau that's soured.
