Welcome

Hello! My name is Shannon Taylor. I'm a former editor living in the woods of Wisconsin with my husband, four children, and lots of pets. I created this blog as a place to gather my thoughts and share ideas as I squeeze in some writing whenever the kids aren't looking.

Using Our CSA / Grandma’s Summer Salad

I was so happy when I got this week’s CSA box because, among other goodies, it contained the three main ingredients needed for Grandma Campobasso’s summer salad.

It’s the simplest salad in the world to make, just a couple of chopped cucumbers, green peppers, and tomatoes tossed in a bowl with some olive oil, salt and pepper, and a dash of dried oregano. But I love it because it reminds me of visits to my grandparents when I was little. We’d pick the ingredients from their garden and Grandma would make this salad. It tastes like summer to me.
