Turkey Plate Displays and a SALE!

 I'm sharing a few displays with turkey themed plates and platters.  And, did I mention they are all on sale in my shop right now?  It's time to gobble up the savings! Click HERE to visit my shop, and SAVE 20% when you use the code TURKEY at checkout!   I took this pic below last year.  The things we do to get a picture!  I carried several big stacks of turkey plates and platters out to my front yard and laid them out on the fallen leaves (not yet raked, or when I'm real lucky blown down the street...hehe..).  I dragged a ladder out there and climbed upon it with camera in hand and after several goings up and down the ladder and to and from my computer to download images I finally got a decent pic.  The older I get the more scared of climbing a ladder I get!  I can tell you I got some real strange looks from the passers by!  Anyway, some of these have sold but there are lots more and many of the same ones in my shop. This was a display with a Clarice Cliff

Nancy's Artichoke Chicken (or Veal) Piccata

Well over a year ago Shawn made lemon chicken and felt that he had put too much lemon in it.  The over-doing of the lemon ruined anything with lemon for him.   I had been craving chicken or veal piccata for what felt like the looooongest time and even with the slightest mention of it Shawn would begin to mutter about not wanting that or say he'd just make a sandwich, grab a burger or eat a bowl of cereal...all because of the lemon!   Ever since he overdid it with lemon juice (at least in his opinion) in the lemon chicken he has had this aversion to any and all dishes calling for the juice of a lemon.   Well, after several months, I felt I could no longer resist the craving and decided to make chicken piccata.  I surprised Shawn with it and now, I am happy to report that he is no longer averse to a little lemon here and there. Woo hoo!  In fact, he asked for this very dish  just a few days afterwards and it was a total hit with all of our kids who were here to eat it with us tha
