Supper Club Finds: Rosé and Ground Mustard Dressing

The other day was apparently, um, National Rosé Day.

You didn't know?! (me neither)

Well, apparently, it's the second Saturday in June. Mark your calendars for 2018, people. And bloggers -- GET. ON. IT. At least, get on it better than I did this year. How did I miss this? Well, apparently it was created in 2014 by a Rosé manufacturer. So yes, this is definitely the "Hallmark Holiday" of the wine world. 

Oh well. I'll embrace it. Le duh. 

At supper club the other night, I actually had a DELICIOUS rosé and I was like "Lori. Please tell me this isn't a forty dollar wine. Because I want it in my house" and a quick google search shows it's around $15? Totally doable. 

We all had a wonderful time per usual and really enjoyed the iPhone self-timer more than adult women should. It's so fun though! I love my friends!

Lori made a grilled chicken salad with THE BEST grain mustard vinaigrette. She'd just come back from Charleston where she sweet-talked the chef into sharing the recipe. And then she shared it with us. Secret's out! Now, this does make 1.5 liters ... picture a two liter Coke bottle. That size, y'all. So be prepared to scale it down or at least be ready to share some in a mason jar with some neighbors or co-workers.

In the salad was arugula and mixed greens, pine nuts, sliced almonds, sunflower seeds, and pepitas (pumpkin seeds) with grilled chicken on top and a buttered roll on the side.

5 Tbsp Colmans mustard powder (see below)
