What's for Dinner, Fri., July 18, 2014

Chicken Piccata. I have lots of lemon to use up.

I bought a romaine head, too, which would be wonderful on the grill.

1. Thanksgiving in July

I'm brining a turkey thigh (it's huge - 1.5 lbs) right now. I'll roast it up tonight with acorn squash and a sweet potato. I just made whole berry cranberry sauce. I'll probably make a classic bread stuffing as a side, too.

Why wait for November?

I walked by the salmon display three times before I gave in-- three fillets, each with a golf ball sized ball of basil pesto butter sitting on top. Could only get the three, about a half pound each.

With great restraint, I stretched them over two meals; and the cat had a great time with the baking tin it came in.

Fresh wax beans from the farm stand and other stuff lying around finished the meals.
