Yesterday was the warmest day yet of Grace and Emmett’s lives. For the first time I actually took layers off (rather than chasing them around with hats and socks) and let them practice crawling (which at this point is a scoot with thrusts of the feet).
But with Mom and Grandma Deborah at home in upper 80 degree weather, what’s a girl to make for dinner? I concocted a new, yet-to-be-world-famous, salad:
The Kitchen Sink (or Everything But The…) Early Summer Salad:
Bag of organic baby lettuce
Handful sliced ripe strawberries
Handful walnut halves or wholes
2-3 cooked (and cooled) sliced beets
Cooked chunks pork chop (maybe chicken would be good too, or eliminate meat if not serving as an entree)
Goat cheese crumbles
Top with balsamic vinaigrette and enjoy!
You might think I’m crazy, but it was a big winner around this house.
And for those who don’t follow me on Facebook, here are some new pics (Bonus: There are two NEW pictures, not on my Facebook, that are just for Great Grandma Sharon!)
