Julia Child, move aside...Vern is Cooking!

The French Classic, Coq Au Vin, came to life in our kitchen today thanks to the Spokesman Review recipe in yesterday's paper - and head chef, Vern, of course! Officially called Rooster in Wine, this silky smoky, rustic elegant mushroom chicken dish was delightful and got five stars by me :)  And even though Vern did not pour cognac over ours and light it on fire when serving as Julia did (!?!), it was still wonderful.
