A delightful salad! I cut it in half for the two of us and it was just right. I did add a little Splenda to the lemon juice as we don't like things to tart, but that is a personal preference. I also threw in some sun dried tomatoes (Recipe # 70005) and they added color as well as a little more flavor. Thanks for a healthy, refreshing salad. Carole in Orlando

Behold, the worst picture of me ever taken, I think. I'm in distress over the paint color that you see behind me, and am suffering from brain scramble after looking at too many potential paint colors over a very short amount of time. However, it's one of those "me, now" pics that amuse me, so I figured I'd share. Onward...
Hi there! Self description always throws me, but I'll try: I'm a hyper, writing, Yoga-practicing, fashion-loving, almost-constantly-reading, very Type A, highly domestic ovo-lacto vegetarian who is obsessed with Nutella and has a very personable German Shepherd/Husky mix named Totsi. I think that just about covers it.
Sometimes, everyone needs a little Totsi, so here she "bee":
