Our friends who came from Texas!
These are our friends from Encinitas,
with whom our Texas friends stayed with.
We had baked salmon, true bleu salad, watermelon,
hummus with fresh veggies and stress free herbal tea.
And the some of the best company ever!
And we had one lone duck who was very friendly,
we enjoyed her company
And she enjoyed our watermelon!
This is close to what our True Bleu salad looked like!
It was soooo gooood!

Mom needs to make that salad for me!
Looks like great company and yummy food!
looks like a good recipe...will have to save it
Yummy. You are so good at putting together a great picnic. You always have some really good food.
It's like a gourmet picnic. You should start a Picnic Catering business. I'm serious. Pinic for 2 people, or up to 8. You would be great at it! I would hire you.
For a special date, or a small pinic party.
It is nice to spend time with friends and to be outside. Your salad is my kind of salad! yummy
