It has been a super long stressful weekend. So… even though I have a few recipes waiting to be written and posted, I decided to do a roundup of some of my summer salad recipes instead. I took my licensing exam at 6:15 this morning, and I’m attending a family event tonight. I really didn’t think I could give my post all the attention it deserves. This was my compromise. I hope you don’t mind. =)
In a few days, I’ll be back to posting new recipes. In the mean time, I hope you’ll find something you like from these summer recipes.
