Unraveling the mystery of her grandmother's secret
past leads a rare gold coin, a Tommy gun, murder, and love
Because it is spring and I’ve started cleaning up my garden, I’d love to
hear any garden tips you have that would help. My favorite herb from my garden is
dill. If you like Salmon and love to have a dill spread for you fish, here’s my
favorite recipe. My hubby, Brett, doesn’t care for salmon, but he like it with
the cucumber-dill spread, as long as the salmon’s grilled.
Dill
Spread
1
½ cups plain nonfat yogurt
¾
teaspoon grated lemon zest
¼ cup plus 1 ½ teaspoon lemon juice
1
tablespoon plus 1 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
¾
teaspoon salt
2
medium cucumbers, peeled, seed, and diced
¾
cup snipped fresh dill and refrigerate
Served
over cooked salmon.
Of
course, a tall glass of ice tea goes great with the grilled salmon. My perfect
recipe for ice tea:
Sprinkle a pinch of
baking soda into a 64 ounce, heat proof glass pitcher. Pour in 2 cups of
boiling water, add 6 tea bags and cover and steep for 15 minutes. Remove the
tea bags, stir in ¾ cups white sugar (I like my tea sweeter, so I add 1 cup
sugar), then, pour in 6 cups of cool water, refrigerate.
Pour the sweet tea over a glass of ice, squirt in some
lemon, and enjoy.

Hey, Judy! Stopping by to say hi (and check out your book list!). That dill spread sounds like it could be really tasty. Not sure what I'd use it with, though - ovo-lacto vegetarian :) Thanks for participating in the hop! I find new people to try out and get reminded that people *do* publish new books even when I don't pay attention to releases. (email ___@___.___.___, fill in the blanks with smiles, alumni, cmu, edu)
