Is this some sort of traditional shape for the area, or was it designed to be an eye-play sort of joke?<br />Coq au vin has been in the oven for an hour as we speak. Ken I saw your comment after it has been in for just a little, whipped it out and added vin cotto which we buy from an Italian supplier. As you probably know, it is cooked grape must. Thick, sweetish and delicious in dressings etc.<br />Everyone in the house is salivating at the delicious smells from the oven.<br />Coq au vin was a common dinner party dish in the pretentious Aussie 70's and one I made often, but your recipe is much, much easier and less time consuming.<br />Feeling hungry..will let you know how it goes.<br />SueAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-64750886991994268902011-04-02T20:02:28.944+02:002011-04-02T20:02:28.944+02:00The Palet-Côt saucisson ingredients are so unexpec...The Palet-Côt saucisson ingredients are so unexpected in a saucisson.

You are like a fine wine that has become more complex and more developed with the years. I love how learning about one thing can open up doors to understanding more about another thing, and so on and so on. You really are getting the most out of your life in France!<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-53131567613986118362011-04-02T17:04:21.818+02:002011-04-02T17:04:21.818+02:00How wonderful to still be discovering treasures cl...How wonderful to still be discovering treasures close to you!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06031276247743743680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-63350505997859776672011-04-02T16:37:27.203+02:002011-04-02T16:37:27.203+02:00CHM, I have never posted pictures of that church. ...CHM, I have never posted pictures of that church.
