Live with Kindness

Live with kindness, integrity and spirituality. Comport yourself with grace under pressure. Be an asset in the lives of others. Put people before things and live from your heart. Be intelligent, but know it is better to be kind than smart. Be a peacemaker who values peace and takes peace everywhere you go. Learn to understand your energy and how you create with your energy. Have among your priorities the characteristics of politeness, compassion and patience. Avoid making rash assumptions. Be a believer in true love. Seek deep communication with others and with yourself. Laugh and make the best of every situation. Understand that life is not perfect. Be whole enough to love and to be loved. When you find real love — protect and preserve the sweetness and intimacy of your gift. Make your home a heaven on Earth.
— Bryant McGill

Steak House Potatoe Salad

Link in my Sidebar

3 lb. baby red potatoes, quartered

8 large red radishes, sliced

2 sticks celery, chopped

8 green onions + tops, chopped

5 hard boiled eggs, chilled and sliced

8 oz. sharp cheddar or pepper jack cheese, cut into small cubes

1 lb. bacon, fried, cooled and crumbled

4 pickled pepperoncini peppers, chopped

1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Dip mix

1/2 cup real mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream or greek yogurt

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped fine

2 Tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder

2 Tablespoons prepared mustard (any type)

2 Tablespoons pepperoncini juice OR apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Place baby potatoes in a large pot of boiling water and cook until firm/tender (about 20 minutes, or until you can easily pierce the potatoes with a fork.)

Place potato pieces on cooling racks over baking sheets to cool quickly. Once cool, place in a large mixing bowl.

In another mixing bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients. Mix very well and toss gently with the potato pieces. Cover and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Enjoy!

~ Summer ~
Hair gets lighter
Skin gets darker
Water gets warmer
Drinks get colder
Music gets louder
Nights get longer
Life gets better

“it's a smile, it's a kiss, it's a sip of wine ...
it's summertime!”~ Kenny Chesney

In the summertime when the weather is high
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine...
...We go fishing or go swimming in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy...
