I hoped but didn't Expect this!

I always expect the Meals I put together to be enjoyed, and while I always Hope that what I throw together becomes a new Favorite, I wasn't expecting the Reaction my salad and especially my New vinaigrette creation got tonight!

We are both Huge salad eaters but it's usually Newman's Caesar over romaine for me and Marie's Thousand Island with a chopped hard-boiled Egg thrown into it over a tossed Garden salad for him. Or, when I'm grilling Filets, it's something Lazy-simple, such as a plate of sliced English cucumber, tomatoes and Red onion drizzled with Italian, straight from a bottle. But I knew the moment Mom served me her salad last week that Caesar was out and that this would be my Favorite, now and forever... Amen. But I wasn't so sure about him. Turns out, I didn't have to Wonder long about how he liked it because after I finished loading the dishwasher I noticed my Bowl was missing. It's not a big Kitchen so I went into the Den to ask if he knew where it was. And this is what I found...

Wonderhubby eating the Remainder of my salad by the fireplace,

straight out of the Mixing bowl... He LOVED it! And, thank Goodness, because

10 bottles of Trader Joe's White Balsamic Vinegar is a lot for just little ole' me!
