Jay was here for dinner tonight. It was an excellent meal! We grilled chicken, since it’s been so hot out. I love this chicken. Butterflied, so it cooks evenly. The yams can be fried on the stove (which is what I did tonight), or they can be grilled (more healthy). The tart was excellent. Larry wants me to try it with blueberries next.

Wine: Copain 2003 Arrowhead Mountain Zinfandel. Tonight was the first night we’ve tried Copain. I got on their mailing list, which requires a three-bottle minimum on allocations. This Zin was an excellent choice. Jay thought it was a bit young, but I like my Zins big and young. Yummy!
That tart looks incredible! Guess this is something I’m going to have to try…mind scanning the recipe? I tried eBay-ing some FC mags, but lost the bids:(
Thank you for letting me eat it in bed with my morning coffee. I’m so glad we are friends.
