Cucumber Vinegar Salad

Cucumber Vinegar Salad by Carolinaheartstrings

This was a favorite summertime salad of my mine. I remember my mother making this on a regular basis with garden fresh cucumbers and onions. I put a little tweak on it and added a tomato. Delicious.

Vinaigrette Coleslaw I

Vinaigrette Coleslaw I by Salad Foodie

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Bananas

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Bananas by Kristy O'Connor

I found a similar off of a Pinterest post. It looked so easy on the post, but it proved to be way more difficult trying it for the first time. I think the key really is the thickness of the chocolate, and mine was too thick… I know too much chocolate, NO WAY… but I think in this case, less is more. To view this recipe in more…

Luckily though I am just walking distance from a wonderful restaurant that has served our town since 1973. It was at The Continental Corner that I was first introduced to this sauce –…
