Not sure why I decided to try just one more Broccoli salad recipe? They never realy wanted me to make it again. BUT am I ever glad I did this one. It tastes fantastic right away and I had to stop tasting, so there would be some left for company tomorrow! :-) I also added some green onion and left the eggs out. Thanks for this recipe , that I'll be making over and over again. Koechin/Chef

Now, a little about me . . .
It's hard to believe I've been a member for over 7 years now! Once I discovered Zaar, I never looked back at the other sites. This place is truly like family, sitting around sharing great recipes, helpful hints and just chit-chatting about our daily lives.
Hubby and I were fortunate enough to be able to retire early and now enjoy traveling in our motorhome :) . Our travels have taken us all over this great country of ours and meeting new and exciting people along the way is an extra bonus. We are blessed. We usually alternate between Florida Keys and Arizona for the winters. The rest of the year, you can find us just about any place. We love our home on the lake, but there is a bit of gypsy in us both and we hit the road as much as we possibly can.

I guess my biggest pet peeve is people who are negative all the time. Because I enjoy life so much, I try to avoid such people. Life is too short.
