    Why do I need a quick-fix salad?

    Yesterday, I arose before the sun to take pictures of my latest culinary creation. As I clicked away, my mind raced with all that had to be accomplished in the day ahead. Motherhood, wife-hood, finance professional and food blogger - it was a juggling act I had no choice but to embrace. Thankfully, I have a wonderful support system of family and friends who encourage me in all that I do. So here's to embracing the chaos and taking it one day at a time!

    The day after the shoot, I ventured to the office, trekking out to remote fields, before heading off for a bloggers meet. Finally, I returned home in time for dinner with my daughter and husband. We cooked up a delicious plate of pasta and enjoyed our quality time together.

    Substitution

    Many people use Blackberries in Watermelon, Black Olive, and Feta Cheese Salad. However, I don’t like extra sweetness but prefer a tanginess. I prefer to add a lot of lemon juice and finely chopped onion along with Watermelon, Black Olives and Crumbled Feta Cheese.
