Mike has become a real San Leandro history buff and he wanted us to join.  They provided the hot dogs (which btw, were very good) and we were all asked to bring a side dish or a dessert.  Now, my first instinct was to buy some dessert at the supermarket.  I&#8217;m not really one for cooking for potlucks.  But Mike wanted me to make my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marga.org\/food\/party\/mika2\/salad.html\">Mixed Green Salad with Gorgonzola Vinaigrette<\/a>, and I complied.  This is really one of the best salads I&#8217;ve ever eaten and the one I make when I&#8217;m called to produce a salad.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s also an incredibly expensive salad.  This time we had to go to the supermarket to buy all the ingredients &#8211; saved for the raspberry vinegar &#8211; and it cost us about $20.  Pretty shocking, I thought.<br \/>\nStill, it&#8217;s really good.  Next time I make it, though, I&#8217;m going to decrease the olive oil by a 1\/4 cup &#8211; have 3\/4 cups of EVOO rather than 1 cup.  I think it was a bit too soggy as it was (but it tasted so good!).<br \/>\nI was happy I brought it to the event as apparently most of the ladies are bakers, so there were a plethora of desserts but mine was the only green salad.  I tried the pineapple upside down cake, the applie pie and the peanut butter cookies and they were all excellent.  Those ladies are really good bakers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night we went to the San Leandro Historical Society&#8217;s BBQ.
