It's cold here in Texas.
Time for the chef to fix a hearty dish.

Cooler weather is the
perfect time to make a stew,
and what better choice than

The woven details offer a
charming French country feel for
the theme of a casual one dish meal.
Napkins in olive green and aubergine
are also from William Sonoma.
The pewter napkin rings,
each with a different flower motif,
are from the Netherlands.

Bowls are wide and shallow.
Perfect for stew!
Each of the plates and bowls
of the Quimper set are a bit different,
but with the same stylized flower theme.
A glass of red wine
is perfect with this dish.
Julia recommends a
Beaujolais, a Bordeaux, or a Burgundy.
The sides of boiled potatoes
and snow peas compliment the beef cooked
in red wine with bacon, onions, and mushrooms.
Bon Appetit!
