Spice Rubbed Grilled Chicken from the September 2012 Cooking Light (the recipe is by an 11 year old!). Served with Baked Butternut Squash (no recipe online) from The Good Cook: Vegetables Cookbook. The recipe is nice, but our squash was not--as made, it gets a 2, but it seems like a 3 or 4 with good squash. We give the chicken a 4.

Wine: Vin de Tabula Rasa 2009

Spice Rubbed Grilled Chicken from the September 2012 Cooking Light. This is so simple and so tasty--it gets a 5. Served with sautéed garden squash and sliced garden tomatoes.

Wine: Vin de Pays des Collines des Moure 2006. We were a bit embarrassed to find a rosé this old in the cellar, and delighted with how good it is!
