Several months ago when Ricki requested volunteers to test recipes for her breakfast ebook we jumped at the chance. Rita and I have been fans of Ricki’s nutrition philosophy and her delicious, nutritious recipes for quite a while. Even now, there is a double batch of her Warm Chickpea and Artichoke Salad (we live in Texas where I serve it chilled with greens) in the refrigerator right now waiting to go to a potluck later today. The last time I brought this to a potluck I had to scrape the bowl to get a tiny amount to add to my lunch the next day!

Thanks so much for the mention–I was honored to have you both as testers!
And I’ve never tried the artichoke salad cold–I think I will have to give it a go this summer.
Congratulations on acquiring your own domain! Very exciting. Looking forward to years more recipes, information and anecdotes from you.
