happy, happy weekend

Hello, November.
Your first day on the books is cold and grey and dreary. Aching for sun. Can
you help us out a little in that regard? Thanks much.
With November
just starting, you have 28 days left to plan your thanksgiving menu. Here are
some recipes for stunning side dishes that have caught my eye: 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5/
And,
since we may be turkey-ed out by month’s end, Bon Appetit has put together a brilliant guide of Chicken- and Turkey-Free Meals for November.
p.s. here's a song to
start off the weekend; and a cocktail (named after a killer Neil Young song, no
less) to start it off right.
p.p.s. I’ve been
over the adoration (or rather, obsession) of quinoa for quite a while, but
these look like a great way to start the day.
p.p.p.s. now
here’s a food to adore: I bought some wheat berries here last
weekend. So many things to make with this glorious, protein-packed grain! Cuccia for breakfast, a roasted sweet
potato and wheat berry salad for lunch, and five (!) dinners out of one batch
of wheat berries from the geniuses at Food52 … and we can’t forget dessert … a
lovely wheat berry fool with Grand Marnier-soaked figs.
Quote of the
week: Small cheer and great welcome makes
a merry feast.
