My mom just loved the surprise "Summersgiving" turkey dinner I made for her and our visitors from out of town.

She said it was one of the best dinners she's ever had and that she couldn't have fantasized about anything better. <3

It was a lot of work, but seeing her so happy made it worthwhile.

I think my dad would have approved.

Some family friends from out of town are coming to visit this month, so I want to plan a special dinner when they arrive.

I also want to make a special treat for my mom. She's been especially sad lately: I think after three and a half months, the initial shock has worn off and it's fully sunk in for her that my dad is gone. So I want to find ways to pamper her.

My mom's all-time favorite dinner is a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, which of course she usually only gets in November. So I think I'll surprise her, and our guests, with a Summersgiving dinner.

I didn't know until just now that there actually is a Summersgiving that some people celebrate, though unfortunately it's in June and we missed it. But who says we can't celebrate it in August instead?

I've planned out a menu that takes traditional Thanksgiving staples, but incorporates summer produce and light, sunny summer flavors. Here's what I have in mind:

Citrus-Herb Turkey Breast

Fresh Herb Sourdough Dressing

Lemon-Chive Mashed Potatoes

Green Beans with Basil & Cherry Tomatoes

Cranberry-Peach Sauce

Strawberry-Apple Crisp with Vanilla Ice Cream

How does that sound?
