Hi Folk's!
I made this salad after watching an episode of Pioneer Woman. I was skeptical at first, but curious as to how the combination of flavors, the sweet and savory, would compliment each other. The salad is an interesting mix. You can get the recipe by clicking the link above.
I brought the dish to Mathew and Tracee's engagement party! While I still prefer to eat tomatoes separately from watermelon, it certainly was a refreshing and unusual salad to try!
Let's talk about biking, shall we? I received an email the other day regarding the type of bike I ride, and why I no longer blog about running.
Well, the short and sweet answers to those questions are: I usually ride my leisure bike, and I don't blog about running, because I don't run.
I may change things up and ride a different bike, depending on the terrain, but I really love my basic Schwinn. It's one of the most comfortable bikes I have rode. Also, lucky for me, northern Indiana is basically flat, so I don't usually feel the need for a fancy speed bike.
I do miss running. I might get back into it, but if so, very carefully. I want to avoid injury as much as possible.
The other day, Jean and I biked to the Dunes National Lakeshore and back along the Kankakee trail.
It's was a nice and scenic ride.
With the reward of watching a Lake Michigan sunset!
We met up with Nancy and her friend at the beach,
The weather was starting to cool down from the heat of the day. Plus, it's always cooler at the lake.
I iced my legs and feet in the freezing cold, Lake Michigan water. Refreshing!
As you can see from the Chicago skyline, it was a fairly clear evening sky.
So, the above pic may not be a very good shot, but I have been in several close encounters with spiders lately. Therefore, I've decided, between now and Halloween, I'm going to start photographing these creepy creatures. Hopefully, I'll get a little better at it in future posts.
Biking back to the house! Weeeeeeeeeee! Ya gotta love a smooth, freshly paved road! :-)
