Adding another old recipe up front for you to see! This is a super popular one that you’ve probably seen around Pinterest a time or two. So tangy and so so good! Give it a whirl this weekend! Original post went live August 2012 when I only had one baby!! NUTS.

Let’s start our Friday off with a bang, shall we?

MY LATEST VIDEOS

Way back in June I went to the DMV to switch my Idaho license for an Oregon one….since I live in Oregon. So, off I went and to my surprise, shock and horror I had to take a written test. The lady at the counter said “don’t worry it’s easy”. Do you see where this is going? YEAH. I failed that sucker. By one lousy question.

The lady at the counter then said “you should of skipped all the questions you didn’t know! You should have used the skip button!”

Ummmm, WHAT?! You clearly did NOT tell me there was a skip button. Sweet merciful. #ijusthadaheartattackrightthere #figurativelyspeaking

So then I left and drowned my sorrows in nutella and/or ice cream and/or oreos and blocked out the traumatizing events of the day and made my three year old reassure me that she in fact does love me still. As every normal person would do. {Yes, I am normal. Why do you keep asking that?}

Anyways, I forgot about the DMV until I went to get a library card for my daughter. Apparently to sign up for a library card, you need to give proof of residency, a valid oregon license, your credit card number and your left kidney. What the _____? Librarians are crazy, yo! Oh wait. Just the ones at my library. So, I didn’t end up getting a library card and I made a trip back to the DMV. Eff.

Guess what.

I studied {because the ‘general knowledge’ test is full of smoke and mirrors}, used the skip button and passed that piece of insert expletive here. EAT THAT DMV lady! Sucka!

Just kidding. Please still send me my license. By the way, I love your mullet. And fanny pack. {—>not even kidding.}

So I can gain a little more confidence and self respect, please go take this practice test and let me know I’m not the only one who thinks these questions are kinda shoddy.

And while you’re at it, make this salad. It is beyond incredible and can make you forget all your cares in the world. Bacon- salty. Strawberries-sweet. Almonds-crunchy. Dressing-creamy. Everything eaten together-priceless.

Super simple and super delicious! So easy that I didn’t do step by step photos! Boo-yah.

Sorry. That was so 1994.

Fry up some bacon and get crack-a-lackin’!

Enjoy, friends!! Have a fabulous food filled weekend! Love your faces!! 🙂
