I decided that I wanted a cool salad to go with my lasagna. Jan really likes carrot salad. Since she had forbidden me to be too creative with the lasagna I decided that would express myself on this dish.

Karl’s Uyghur Carrot Salad
For Mother’s Day, Jan has requested Uyghur Shashlik and Naan for dinner. Normally, if I was making these dishes, I would make a tomato and cucumber salad as the side dish. For me this has gotten to be a bit boring and predictable. I want to do something else.

Karl’s Anniversary Carrot Salad
This week is our 30th anniversary. This weekend Jan mentioned that her favorite salad was carrot. We were at the farmer’s market and she wanted to buy some heirloom carrots for her favorite salad. We thought through how I could possibly not know this after all this time. Jan, apparently, has always loved carrot salad. She buys carrot salad to eat for lunch whenever she has a chance, except when I am with her. If she is at a business dinner and there is carrot salad in the buffet she will take a big scoop, except if I am with her. This, it seems, has been going on behind my back for 35 years.
