Mmmm. This week's Lunch Bunch is here. Those of you who are wondering what this has to do with jewelry, I work for www.agrainofsand.com ,an online retailer of unique vintage & contemporary beads & findings. I'll wait a second for your wave of envy to pass. Not only do I design my own jewelry, I play with beads all day, AND get to share yummy recipes. Again, I'll pause here a second for you to pull yourself together.
What is Lunch Bunch? Once a week, Suzanne, Jean, and I cook one of these recipes and bring it in to share.
This week was Suzanne's day to cook. She brought in Pasta Salad with Apples and Chicken.
