    Blue Moon / on a hot day / was the best thing on tap there

    Then I guess I ought to try one before dismissing it. I see that
    in Canada it's made by Molsons who actually export it successfully
    into Europe. I will continue to ignore some of their sillier
    spinoffs though, like Gingerbread Spiced Ale.

    This article amused me as well as supporting my views on both potatoes
    and kale:

    French Fries Are More of a "Superfood" Than Kale

    Ardent eaters of goji berries, blueberries, acai, and kale might be
    surprised to learn that these foods do not magically grant health
    and longevity.

    A truer superfood, one which provides almost everything the body
    needs, is the humble potato. Packed with starch, fiber, and protein,
    as well as vitamins and minerals, it may be the most complete food
    on the planet. Cut one up and lightly fry the slices with a little
    canola oil and a pinch of salt, and you've got yourself a healthful
    feast!

    The last of the grenadine rums and another Joe Robertson version of
    a classic:

    ... Stop constantly saying that kale is better than pizza. It's NOT.

    You do realise that Molson and Coors are one and the same at the Corp
    Rat level, do you not?

    Founded Molson (1786), Coors (1873), merged (2005)
    Headquarters - Denver, Colorado, U.S.

    Yes, I cribbed that from the interweb. ppppbbbbtttt!!!!

    I prefer Labatt for a Canadian quaff - even if it is (currently) an Anheuser-Busch InBev conglomerated brand.

    Title: Panko Crusted Chicken Piccata
    Categories: Poultry, Breads, Citrus, Herbs
    Yield: 4 servings

    1 c Flour
    3 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
    2 c Panko breadcrumbs
    4 Skinned, boned chicken
    - breast halves
    Salt & fresh ground pepper
    1/2 c Olive oil
    6 tb Butter
    2 tb Capers; well rinsed
    2 tb Lemon juice
    +=PLUS=+
    Several slices of lemon
    1 tb Chopped parsley

    Place the flour, eggs, and Panko in three separate
    shallow bowls.

    Butterfly the chicken so each piece is half as thick as
    it was to begin with. Lay the chicken out on a cutting
    board, cover with wax paper, then use a meat mallet or
    rolling pin to pound it to 1/4" inch thick. Season both
    sides with salt and pepper.

    Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over
    medium heat. Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, shake
    off the excess, then dip in the eggs, and coat with
    breadcrumbs. Add half the dredged chicken breasts to the
    skillet and fry for 3-5 minutes or a side or until
    golden brown and cooked through. Remove to a plate.

    Add the other half of the oil to the skillet and repeat
    with remaining chicken breasts.

    When the chicken has been removed, add the butter to the
    skillet and use a spatula to scrape up any brown bits
    (that's where the flavor is!). Let the butter cook until
    sizzling and just starting to brown. Stir in the capers,
    lemon juice, and lemon slices.

    To serve, plate the chicken then spoon the lemon butter
    sauce over top. Top with lemon slices and fresh parsley.
