Peter--Well, think of a macaroni salad--it's a Yank thing. So, you've
got pasta, and you've cooked it and you've poured on an Italian
dressing. Then you add the fixins--smoked mozzarella cheese or Greek
cheese, little grape tomatoes sliced in half, salami or other Italian
meats of your choice, Greek or French oil-cured olives, fresh or
pickled green peppers, maybe some garbanzo beans or fresh peas, some
herbs, some red peppers--sun dried or not, etc. Basically, it's a meal
in a bowl that can be arranged like a work of art. Oh, and you must
have a glass of wine with it. :-)

I'm in the Greater Boston area and am with Mass Orchid Society. We're
having our auction tomorrow, Tuesday, night. This is a terrific event
with a LOT of bargains on excellent plants. If you're in the 'hood,
it's worth checking out. If you're interested, let me know and I'll
email you the particulars.

P.S. Picnic? Antipasta pasta salad-- epicurious web site has some good
recipes
