magidSmall box, some fruit.
First thoughts: definitely green beans for Shabbat dinner. I still have the eggplant from last week, so I should make eggplant, but at least a couple of people coming aren't eggplant people, so making something else is more appealing. It's the first night of Hanukah, which would imply something fried, but since I can't serve it immediately after frying, that's less than ideal. I could go with Mom's idea of potato kugel instead of latkes (to be lower in fat), perhaps with a bit of sweet potato and/or apple in it for variety. I had thought (before this delivery) of mixed mashed white root veggies (potatoes, turnips, and sunchokes), but I can still mash the other two together. Or stick with that, and nix the kugel, which is more nervous-making for me, given that I rarely kugelize. Also, I think I should put apples and pear on the don't-send list, given that I'm inundated with hand fruit (plus I'd've liked the other fruits I didn't get more than these just now.)
