Simple Layered Greek Salad To Make Now (Impress Your Family) and More
This is a quick post since last weekend’s Grilled Peach Salad was a hit. I want to show you how I made this simple layered Greek Salad. Now is the time with summer tomatoes so good! It looks impressive due to the presentation…but it’s easy.
My Favorite Essential Knife
First, let me show you our favorite chopping knife. It’s the one I use every night while the others sit in the drawer. It’s not cheap (on sale now though) but will last a lifetime with sharpening. I notice it’s my husband’s favorite, too, and he’s a great cook.

Some days are foggy/cool in the summer in San Francisco…
Chief doesn’t mind. But I like when the fog burns off and we have lovely views while doing errands around town.
