Macaroni Salad

Today was, yes, "Preschool Graduation". I do think it's kind of silly, but the kids just ate it up. Even though it was called a graduation, I was excited for the milestone in Bethany's life. Our firstborn is moving on to real school after this, and I still can hardly believe it. I'll post pictures tomorrow, I hope, but I won't promise. I spent an hour and a half last night making a macaroni salad for the picnic celebrating this last day of preschool, and I must say - it was a hit, which, kind of pathetically, gave me a boost in the "feeling good about myself" department. People were asking, "who made the macaroni salad in the blue bowl? it's so good!" and then other people would go & try it, and say, "It is really good!". Then , I would say, "Thank you! That's the way my mom makes it. We use Marzetti's dressing." (by the way, it took me an hour and a half to make this salad because i made a huge Thatsa bowl of it, and cut the cucumbers and green peppers and onions and eggs into very small chunks. I'm not really slow....that's the point of this explanation.) Anyway, more later on the big "graduation day"....
