One Heck of a Salad, Baby!

This is my new favorite salad. We spent the Labor Day weekend at the Stottle's lake house at Tan-Tara. Jenny fixed us this salad the first night. I fixed it again when I got home. Chris and I both love it. Healthy and delicious, baby!
P.S. Forgot my suitcase for the weekend trip. No clothes but the ones on my back. Kind of romantic given it was our 12th year anniversay, don't you think?
