inspiring healthy salad

Thought I would share this lovely, healthy salad recipe from Cynthia Lair. Her book, Feeding the Whole Family, really inspires me to eat healthier! All of the recipes in there are delicious. I keep turning to it again and again over the past year or so. 

I've been making this salad for lunch and I'll eat it for a few days. Kale (or Swiss Chard…of which we have an abundance), Fennel, Red Cabbage, Peppers, Wild Rice, Gorgonzola…yummy!

The recipe is here, Emerald City Salad.

*Pretty excited that it rained this morning, considering that I forgot to water the garden last night. One less thing to do. Because it seems to take me more and more time to do less and less lately.

*Maybe this has something to do with the 19 month old who is crying at me, right now, as I type this. Everytime I start to do something, it seems she wants my attention.

*Which brings me to my felted animals. People have been emailing me, wondering if I have ceased to make them for all eternity. I have not. I would love to get back to work! I daydream about cute little chipmunks and kitties in party hats. I can't wait until I can sit down, uninterrupted, full of undisturbed inspiration, and get back to being creative. I am shooting for this week! :) Yes! Thinking positive.

*Although baby is still crying, hanging on my leg.
