I was experimenting last night for a dinner party we're going to have for this couple we met at the Mendocino Wine Auction. I decided to try a Coq au Vin recipe from the Dean and Deluca cookbook.

For over two hours I was standing and chopping and fixing...that was before it got in the oven! I was exhausted. So I'm going to try something else. I don't know. It was really good....
