Southern Flashback

Christi’s Note (7/16 @ 8:00 a.m.):  Apparently my hosting server was down last night. My apologies to anyone who tried to visit and was greeted by an error. So sorry!

My tablescape plans for today got rained out. I see our weather will be getting better soon though, so, I’ll be getting back outside for that “table” soon. In the meantime, for today, I’m taking a look back. Since I’ve been showing you pics of the garden this week, I went back and found the tablescape I posted while I was actually putting in the garden. There are even seed packets, still unopened, on the table! My how things have changed in my yard since then. Here is the flashback:

Working in the garden can really tire you out. I think I really need a nice place to take a break. This is my tablescape entry this week in Tablescape Thursday hosted by Susan at Between Naps on the Porch. Y’all stay tuned. There are robins building a nest on my porch and I’m taking pics of their progress that I’ll be posting.

A nice place to take a break.

Today’s Lagniappe: Garden Salad with Mustard Vinaigrette

Something light and easy to enjoy.

Use your favorite salad greens and veggies and dress them with this lovely mustard vinaigrette. Easy!

* 1½ cups salad oil
* ½ cup white wine vinegar
* 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
* 1½ tsp Kosher salt
* ½ tsp ground white pepper (or freshly ground black pepper)

1. Combine the mustard and vinegar in a glass or stainless steel bowl and whisk them together briefly.

2. Place the mustard-vinegar mixture along with the oil and seasonings in a blender and mix for about 10 seconds or until fully combined.

3. Serve right away, as the oil and vinegar will begin to separate as soon as you stop mixing.

Makes 1 pint of dressing.
