Actually, the dinner for 03 August was supposed to be grilled chicken. But then …. a Senior moment! The chicken is in marinating (Olive Oil, garlic, chives, sage and thyme) in fresh herbs from the garden. And then …. And then …. The Senior Moment!! The grill is started; Our tickets are purchased for the BBQ Salmon Feed sponsored by the Meridian Firefighters on Friday (See the post on this blog); I need to get the Salmon out and marinate it. WHAT? It’s supposed to be chicken tonight, because you’re going to have salmon – a lot of salmon – Friday night. I tell Robin that the potatoes are on grilling. After 8 minutes I put the salmon on and start the chard – fresh from our grocery pick-up this afternoon. And then …. I realize, with some dismay, that the chicken is marinating and the salmon is on the grill. I told Robin that there was a slight change in dinner plans and that the chicken had been replaced by salmon. She gave me one of those disbelieving Robin Looks and a Mona Lisa smile, as if to say, “Dementia!!” So, instead of a delicious grilled chicken – that will come tonight – our menu looked like this. See the photo.

Grilled Garlic and Thyme Marinated Salmon

Grilled Fresh Red Potatoes

Sautéed Fresh Chard in Garlic and Soy Vay, Veri Veri Teriyaki

2009 Indian Creek Viognier
(Along with their 1988 Pinot Noir and their Petite Verdot, this wine ranks right up there with Indian Creek’s best ever! Full of fresh pear and vanilla. Buy a case or two!)
Or

Hendrick’s Gin and Tonic with Mulled Cucumber

Actually, it was good! So tonight, with the Marinated Chicken, we will have Grilled Squash and something else. And I just remembered – We, notice the plurality, missed a Board meeting last night. Oops! Cheers!
