Salad in a Jar
Ok I just love this!! There are not many things that I love in this world more than salads or mason jars (ok, actually there are a lot of things I love, family, animals, sunrises, small doors to distant lands etc. but you know what I mean) so, why not mix the two together! What a perfect way to carry your salad and keep it fresh! I read that if your dressing stays at the bottom of the jar and never touches the spinach that with the lid on, this salad can stay fresh and ready to eat for up to 4 days! Ohh I am picturing a beautiful scene in my refrigerator, salads prepared for the week!

I Couldn’t Agree More!
As I head to France today for the Adaptive Snowboarding World Championships, I leave this quote behind. Life is an adventure, live it up!
