Salads

Well it’s Sunday. How was everyone’s weekend?! Ours just flew by way too fast. Way. Too. Fast. It was beautiful here. Perfect 75-80 degree F weather. You can’t get much better than that. We unfortunately have snow in the forecast for Wednesday…right before my sister arrives for a visit. I’m sure she will just LOVE …

I’ve been wanting to make a panzanella salad for a while now. Every time I see someone making it on a cooking show or read about it in a cook book, I get the urge to make one. Unfortunately, an hour goes by and I forget about it all together! Fortunately for us and all …
