Let's start the week with a recipe. I love a good salad. Now, I'm not one of those people who say I prefer a salad over ice cream, but I love a good salad for lunch or dinner. Normally I would say, you can't beat a good restaurant salad. There's some secret sorcery there, however, I feel that this salad rivals a restaurant salad. It's hearty and delicious and has all the flavors.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Chicken and Date Salad</b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b></b></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirU1Q45pdWFzXcVaGN8QC0oayTn4nKDEbNFI9Cvv5_5tLz77uCk_l6QXIrlvya1qhFtRX2ij7llFFZfj3mCSkfETWDFpSmUWCunCufYT9_8di6CxdarJ7kkPRmdYqtT67l3x5pkkX0cb4a/s2048/IMG-4690.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirU1Q45pdWFzXcVaGN8QC0oayTn4nKDEbNFI9Cvv5_5tLz77uCk_l6QXIrlvya1qhFtRX2ij7llFFZfj3mCSkfETWDFpSmUWCunCufYT9_8di6CxdarJ7kkPRmdYqtT67l3x5pkkX0cb4a/s640/IMG-4690.jpg"></a></b></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><span></span></span><a href="http://nichole-longandwindingroad.blogspot.com/2020/08/recipe-chicken-and-date-salad.html#more">Read more »</a>Nichole Fisherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02219173829962727622noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376588674547123989.post-29421415414012231882020-08-28T11:22:00.004-05:002020-08-28T11:22:27.463-05:00Friday Favorites<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzxKBAsVNy-2K4plwYTCF8X9aYAvlLEdN0-AyogW8h4kPGSRM8AGN7GUBMQzQdATqG4CGby67ZXfWNgvKLBUU4001J-aMiWkPk0qdD4grUxhHI0PPm5tnFC-a9er1vLcCchzYlR9jH2uuz/s1600/FridayFavoritesUpdated.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="683" data-original-width="1600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzxKBAsVNy-2K4plwYTCF8X9aYAvlLEdN0-AyogW8h4kPGSRM8AGN7GUBMQzQdATqG4CGby67ZXfWNgvKLBUU4001J-aMiWkPk0qdD4grUxhHI0PPm5tnFC-a9er1vLcCchzYlR9jH2uuz/s640/FridayFavoritesUpdated.jpg" width="640"></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Y'all.
