With these spring-time temperatures, I’m ready to enjoy dinners outside on our patio. Living in the Southern Georgia, we usually only have a few weeks when the weather is just perfect; light breezes and 70 degree temps! I just renovated our patio last year so I’m definitely taking advantage of outdoor dining this spring! P.S. The outdoor dining table and chairs are back in stock! Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite fresh salad recipes that’s perfect for alfresco dining!
