There are nights when you don’t know what to make. It seems like you are making the same thing and your imagination has taken a vacation…..You think about it; then you decide no it hasn’t taken a vacation, I am simply a bit tired and am deciding not to think very hard. The dill shouts out to you, the lemons are bright and sunny and the chicken is saying, “pick me, pick me” and you do. Put these flavors together and there is dinner.
