This salad was a hit both times I made it. The second time I made some chages that I think made it better: I used a pint of grape tomatoes cut in half, 1 red onion, and a green pepper. It gave it a little more color and texture. I also used bow-ties, which made it a little easier to handle, the macaroni is hard when you don't have anything to hold it together, and doubled the ground mustard for extra flavor. Very refreshing and perfect for a summer party!

I made this cake for my husband's birthday and everyone loved it! Be careful about the frosting though, we burned it the first time in the broiler, and had to scrape it off. The second time it was done perfectly in about 3 minutes.
