Gluten Free Italian Pasta Salad

When I was growing up, I used to love a place called Landes Meats. It’s a butcher/ bakery/ deli that has been a staple of my hometown since 1946.

They have such wonderful salads that I enjoy. One of which is the Italian Pasta Salad. I decided to create a Gluten Free version of the recipe. I changed up the cheese to Feta because I enjoy the saltiness of Feta.

State Testing Necessities For Me

This week I proctored my 18th round of state testing. Each round of state testing has been different. It depends on the building, the amount of personnel able to help, and the students on how the state testing would stress me out. This year state testing did not stress me.
