  7. Just hopped on here through Esther's link. My husband is hosting three days of meetings at our home and I am doing the food. This salad just went right to the top of my list, to be included. Thanks so much.

  9. Concetta, our son is getting older and is now loving salads and requesting them for lunch and dinner. I've been making a few different ones for variety to make sure he keeps on loving them as they are so healthy. Thank you for sharing your signature salad with Vintage Recipe Thursday. I'll be adding it to my repertoire. :-)

    Can't wait for your trifle on Monday too. Isn't Pinterest fabulous? I'm a very visual person, and I find that website so useful. Looking forward to "pinning" each other lots and lots of times, although that sounds a lot more painful than it should. LOL. Have a great day!

Romans 12:13
Pursue the practice of hospitality.

The Kitchenettes is all about teaching and mentoring young girls in the art of hospitality.
