Friends for Dinner



Friends for dinner.

It doesn't mean the same thing as,
chicken for dinner.  Or fish.  Or rice. 

You get the idea. 

Our friends are vegan.

No meat or dairy. 

We too, prefer to eschew than to chew meat. 

But, try to plan a menu without dairy. 

Without cheese.

Without a small pat of butter. 

Without the tiniest dollop of cream. 

Tricky. 

I will be brushing up on my Turkish salad selection.

There is a saying in Turkey. 

Dressed with good olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt, 
even sawdust tastes good. 

Not sure what that means. 

Not even sure where to get fresh sawdust . . . 

Wonder if I could substitute frozen?
