Thanks, taxlady... In the end, I didn't add any, and I don't think it would have been improved if I had. We had the salad with a sort of "low country" boil of new potatoes, onions, and sausages. A bite of the sausage with the mustardy vinaigrette was really very good.

P.S. Entrée doesn't have cheese in.

What kind of cheese would you add to this salad, if any? All I have on hand are feta, cheddar, gouda, and havarti. I'm thinking goat cheese, but sadly don't have any at the moment. Vinaigrette will have red wine vinegar, olive oil, mustard, garlic, and Creole seasonings

I like the idea of removable parts for cleaning in dishwasher. Thanks for the reviews!

Just starting "Beautiful Ruins" by Jess Walter

The Kindle edition of Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" is available for free at Amazon...

I'm sure neither book can say "what really happened" - which is what we want to know! I didn't know many of the details before reading the book - just that the verdict was a shock to many. I thought the Ashton book was not particularly well written. He really didn't hide his disdain for Baez...

I just read the prosecutor's book: "Imperfect Justice." Such a sad and fascinating case.

I just read "The Queen's Gambit" by Walter Tevis for the 3rd... maybe 4th... time. Read about it! From a review by "HeadButler" Jesse Kornbluth: "I believe that you will care about Beth Harmon more than any fictional character you've encountered in years and years. I believe that you will...

This one is good.

LOL... uni-tasker. yep.

I like Yukon Gold potatoes for mashing. Mixing those with Russets... good idea!
