This is for my foodie friends. In case you thought lettuce was only for salads, here I’m cooking it in some butter with an onion. Then I add some mushrooms, chicken, fresh tomatoes, and some other things– not sure yet. Lettuce is also great in soups, or you can grill it and serve it with blue cheese.

We didn’t feel like cooking last night, and besides, we didn’t have any food in the house, so we decided to order some take-out salads from our wonderful local pizzeria. They were all very good, but my favorite was a chicken salad with carrots, tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, and some pieces of fried bread.

Brunch Sunday afternoon at a restaurant in the East Village, called Timna. We had lots of different sharing plates. I loved everything, especially this dish called shakshuka, which is North African, and it’s basically eggs in a tomato sauce, but the mixture of herbs and spices makes it taste great. And the bread we had to dip in the sauce was wonderful, too. Go there. Soon.

OK guys, this is it! Our Thanksgiving dinner – which we had at 6:30 last night. All the usual things: turkey with cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, lots of vegetables, and more…and more…
before I even think about going to bed. So how was yours?
