2. Just finished
an amazingly tasty broccoli salad (that has red onions, sunflower seeds, and raisins in it - sounds gross but it's great) and some pierogies. Iced tea to drink (that's my addiction).

12. I made it from a friend's recipe
It's really good! :)
If you're interested, it's really simple too:

Take 2 small bunches of broccoli (raw, bite-size pieces), 1/2 C. salted sunflower seeds, 1/2 C. raisins, 1/2 C. chopped red onion; mix that together and then make the dressing (but don't add it until you're ready to serve the salad): 3/4 C. Hellman's real mayonnaise, 1/2 C. sugar, 2 T. white vinegar.

18. Oh, thanks!
That's probably better than buying it at the deli.

8. I love pierogies!!!
I made some once--homemade. My kitchen looked like Betty Crocker and Martha Stewart had a war, but they were yummy.

I've also become addicted to iced tea lately.... diet peach tea. Too yummy for words.

13. Yes!

Our cafeteria was out of peach today, so I got raspberry.

14. I love just about any kind of tea
but my favorite is Lipton's green tea with honey! It is soooo good!

And speaking of pierogies, I'm getting some really tasty homemade ones from a church tomorrow. Homemade are the best!
