Brand New Blog & Mom's Chicken Salad

So what do you think of my new blog??? I'm in love! I must confess I keep clicking on it just to see those cute images of Wendell & I reappear. Jen @ Blue Yonder Design put this together for me in no time and was amazing to work with! She did everything I asked and was so great about communicating. I never expected this pretty new blog to be ready so quickly! I'd love to hear your feedback and thank you to the friends who already have commented on it!


Onto the chicken salad.......
 I want to clarify right off the bat that this delicious chicken salad recipe is actually from my Mom's wonderful friend Brenda, but my Mom has made it so many times over the years that I now think of it as her chicken salad. Mom makes it for luncheons, special occasions, or at my request (I've requested it too many times to count!). My dear girlfriends and I enjoyed it on the beach for a picnic. This salad needs time to rest, so make it the night before and serve with croissants. Myself, well I like it straight from the container with a big spoon.
