Great salad! Many positive comments when I brought it to a large group dinner. I definitely cut back on the onion- as many suggested. I also carmelized my walnuts, and used gala apples since I'm not a big red delicious fan. By using a firmer flesh apple, it was able to hold up longer.

I love this recipe. I've used it several times, and even tried it with 1/2 pears and 1/2 peaches and it turned out delicious! Fresh peaches are best.

Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are some of my favorite cookies. I made some alterations to the recipe- I used 6 Tbs shortning, 1 cup white sugar, 1/2 brown sugar, 1- 15oz can pumpkin (which is about 1 1/2 cups), 3/4 tsp cinnamon, 3/4 tsp nutmeg, 1/2 pumpkin pie spice. I also used a mixture of milk chocolate chips and white chips, and baked on a Silpat. My husband said they were by the far- the best I have ever made. They do come out pretty sweet, so if you don't like cookies too sweet, I suggest cutting back on the sugar.
