[recipe] Tortellini Salad

[Guest guest]

This is a simple salad that is great to

take in either a lunchbox or picnic basket.

You can let each person add more seasoning

to their serving by toting along a few different

flavors of salad dressing and fresh herbs.

1/8 tsp. [or a pinch] of black pepper

Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes to blend

flavors.

We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand

and melting like a snowflake. Let us use it before it is

too late.
