Birthday dinner: roast turkey, vegetable salad and peach cake
November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ ConnieMy husband celebrated his birthday last Saturday and we hosted a small dinner party. I opted to keep the menu simple since I would do the cooking alone. I decided on rice-stuffed roast turkey, a vegetable salad, baked spaghetti for the kids and a peach cake. I wish the photos looked better but I had to turn the camera flash on. I couldn’t set up the tripod since our guests had already arrived and were eager to dig in.

I’ll post the recipe for the roast turkey after I submit my op-ed column at noon.

Wow bravo!!! That’s a wonderful looking turkey and the way you prepared it in brine’s an eye-opener for me but sounds like would make quite a tasty bird indeed. The rice stuffing recipe also sounds very yummy. Actually I’m drooling over the whole feast Mrs Connie. You’ve outdone yourself!
Thank you, Sasha. It was a great dinner.
