The weekend

So we cleaned on Saturday, to prepare for Shannon's parents coming up on Sunday. I also decided to make some chicken salad.

I picked up some ingredients and combined the chicken from a rotisserie bird, green onions, half a small white onion, some fresh chives (from the side of my house), enough mayo to have it stick together, but not so much that it became more goopy and some capers. Normally I'd crumble up some blue cheese and stick it in there, but I didn't want to push them too much (blue cheese is not loved by all), so I left it out. I intended to serve it, also, with some butter lettuce, but forgot to set it out. But it was pretty good.

I also picked up some Cahel Blue Cheese (Irish)...It was pretty good...I'd be curious to taste them side by side with the Maytag...

After lunch, we wondered around Valley Junction, headed over to the capital, saw the renovations to the grounds stopped by the Gateway Market and headed back home to chat some more.

It was a good day.
