As previously mentioned, I have been trying to distract myself from America’s fraught political situation by trying cold chicken salad recipes and moving stuff around in my house.
This salad recipe is a winner. And it’s not even from my usual source (NYT Cooking). I randomly found it on the internet. The dressing/marinade is excellent and the combo of vegetables and bacon/blue cheese/chicken is just right.
Six thumbs up from the current residents of my house 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I like how you write ‘current residents of my house’. I may steal that some day, because it’s so fitting at this stage of life.

True, we should have a name for this stage. I can’t think of a good one. The transitional nest? 🪺 🪹
