Mike's Thanksgiving

Well, I brined (brineded?) a turkey breast for the first time. Actually it was the first time I actually cooked a turkey. Which wasn't a whole turkey; it turned out to be the breasts only. Which looked a little odd, but turned out delicous. It was nice and moist for Thanksgiving dinner, but has also remained super moist for leftovers days later. Also made stuffing, vegtable tian, and a salad.  The vegtable tian is basically just baked, layered roma tomatoes, squash, zucchini, and potatoes, on top of a bed of sauteed onions and garlic and drizzled with olive oil and topped with parmesean cheese.  It wasn't bad. Even though there was some salt and pepper and herbs on it, it was a little bland. Overall though, it was a great meal and a great day.
