It was my honor to chat with my very young Sorors of
Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority at UCF.
When I moved back to the Orlando area from Tampa around 1987. I found out UCF did not have a chapter of SGRho. So, I worked very hard to get recruits, and the Delta Mu Sigma graduate chapter created the Lambda Mu chapter at UCF. In fact, 19 other women and I experience our own charter of the Theta Upsilon chapter of SGRho at the University of South Florida in 1981, EE-YIP! Today, many of us, like 10 or more, are still very close friends, and the beauty of Sigma Gamma Rho, the sisterhood, is for real.
Here I am with my young and impressive SGRho Sorors at UCF!
Members of the the Lambda Mu Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority and one really proud artist! Look at me looking like the hand sign is new, LOL!
Just the Little Things...
When you go out to dinner, and for some reason you can't eat
....so you "fix" a salad when you get home!
My ex-husband would always tell me the food at home was much better than the restaurants. However, I discounted that because he can eat a lot, like crazy lot. But all the same I love entertaining, just having a few friends over, eating around island in the kitchen, laughing, joking and cherishing the moments of friendship. Well, tonight I went out with a friend, had my usual which didn't taste like my usual. Although it was still good but felt more like something you gotta be in the mood for; so when I got home I decided a salad would work. I needed a kick to an old favorite....the toss salad. So, I added herb cucumber ranch dressing, almonds (lots of them), my all-time favorite crumbled goat cheese and Wow...another crazy cool salad. The next time I'll try it with chicken or shrimp, but it was simple and soooooo good!
Twist on an Old Favorite Toss Salad
1 1/2 cup of Spring Mix Salad Greens
1/2 a cucumber Chopped
1/2 a small Roma tomato chopped
2/3 cup of protein if desired, chicken, shrimp, or beef (optional)
1 egg boiled and chopped sprinkle on top (optional)
Several croutons sprinkle over the top
1 tablespoon of Ranch Cucumber herb dressing
Crumbled goat cheese on top (optional but a must have)
Sprinkle slice almonds on over the top
Mixed everything together in bowl, except the egg, croutons, and goat cheese. Top with egg (for more protein), almond, and goat cheese. Add and mix in salad dressing. Add salt and cracked pepper! Bon Appetit!
Don't forget the crostini toast...
