was recently enjoying a Sweet Kale salad… I’d picked up a large bag at Costco and had been eating it over a week or so…

it comes with a poppyseed dressing and reminded me of the first time I had poppyseeds…

my beloved and I had announced our engagement and his best friend’s parents invited us over for a special dinner…

the first course was a poppyseed soup… it was the only item I remember from the entire meal… can’t even remember if it was cold or hot, lol…

my taste buds did not enjoy it at all and I can remember struggling to get it down, because in those days, when someone made you something special you ate it, lol…

I don’t think I’ve eaten anything else with poppyseeds in it until this particular salad, which I’ve been eating for a few years and quite enjoy…
