Poppyseed Pecan Chicken Salad

It's Memorial Day.... 

and it's our day of remembering those who died for our freedoms.

I'm using my poppy teacup that Bernideen from Bernideen's Teatime Blog sent me after my beloved husband passed away going on eleven years ago.  Wasn't that a thoughtful and kind gift?

We are having a new chicken salad recipe that I tried, and it's so good!

My granddaughter, Avery, recently had her 17th birthday, and I took her and her family out to celebrate at an Italian restaurant that she chose.
