"sunshine"

The past Mondays have been total downers...dreary, grey, rainy.

2 of the 3 Mondays have been typhoon related too.

I've been hooked on this salad lately.

Slice purple cabbage, onions, red or yellow bell peppers.
Using a peeler make carrot ribbons.
And throw in lots of chopped curly or flat leaf parsley.

For the dressing I used this marinade recipe:
9 tablespoons olive oil
6 tablespoons white or red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
lemon slices

NOTES: I juice the lemon and then slice the lemon thin to add to the salad. The puckery taste of this and the colors have really been brightening up those gloomy days.

Have a nice weekend!

Bad enough that Monday isn't always the favorite day of the week, but to have yucky weather. :( Sending sunshine your way.
