I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Waldorf Salad

I love this for lunch or a side dish.  If I make it for dinner I like to add grilled chicken to it.  The measurements for the fruit and veggies do not need to be exact for this salad.
