For your tasty treat today, I have recipe for y'all to bring to your Memorial Day picnics this weekend. I hesitate on using the word celebration or party, because Memorial Day is actually not a celebratory holiday, it is an observance of those who have given their lives for our country, our freedom and a tribute to all those who are currently serving our country. To observe the day with family and friends is a wonderful tribute, sharing with our loved ones as we remember those who have paid the ultimate price for our ability to do so.
Alright, that was a slight diversion, but it is my blog and well, that is how I feel...so on to the tasty treat...throw out that recipe for boring old potato salad with mayo and enter...
