It’s easy to get stuck in a rut with salads. For years, I’ve made almost the same salad every day. (And I probably should add for those of you who are new around here that I’ve enjoyed that salad for breakfast.  Yes, I know I’m a little weird.) It’s always been a green salad with [...]

June just isn’t supposed to start off rainy and cold, but here I am. It’s 58 degrees and I haven’t seen the sun all day.  As a Florida girl, this is just unheard of!  Oh, and the Chipmunks shredded one of the cushions to our outdoor chairs. Shredded. In the pouring rain. Who knew something [...]
