Summer Salad and Thank You Readers

First and most importantly, thank you everyone for your kind words yesterday. It means the world to me.  I still can't believe that so many of you want to read what I have to say and I really am honored-- please say hi, even if you follow quietly along I would love to hear from you...you can tell me your favorite color or favorite Cher song (come on now, we all have a favorite) Thank you truly for reading along with me.

And now for a tasty summer treat.


This is probably not a salad you should eat on a first date...poppy seeds, sesame seeds and strawberries don't tend to look that great stuck between your teeth when you're trying to make a good first impression.  But for every other day, especially a warm sunny summer day, this is the perfect salad.

{My salad doesn't have spinach in it because my husband who we will now refer to as Pop Eye ate a 100 pound Costco sized container of it before I could take my pictures}
