Tonight’s dinner feature: orange glazed “meatballs” (soy, from Trader Joe’s) with bok choy, carrots, sweet peppers, and fragrant jasmine rice.
Best wine for the job? Petite Pearl Rosé from Carlos Creek Winery, a stunning dry rosé wine produced from the cold-climate hybrid variety of the same name, petite pearl. A melange of fresh, juicy pomegranate and ripe strawberries and honeydew melon.
