I Laughed So Hard!

There were embarrassing guffaws of laughter (all right - they were screeches) coming from me!  Found this over with Cathy at Tadpoles and Teacups.  Cathy makes the most adorable folk art!  

How Do You Like Your Tuna Salad?

Worker Bee thinks I'm nuts to talk about this, but .....I'm curious.    

What do you put in your tuna salad?  

Are there regional ways of making tuna?  

Have you changed the way your mom made it?

When I was girl (and I grew up here in Central California, as did my mom, and my mother's mom) we always had it with Miracle Whip and chopped up sweet pickles.  Every once in awhile my mom would add a little chopped up hard boiled egg.  That was always a special treat.

When I married Worker Bee, it turned out that we were a mixed marriage - I liked pickles, he loathed them.  To this day I make the tuna without pickles, make his sandwich, and then add pickles for me.  Lucky me - I get all the leftovers.

These days I try to add more veggies to our tuna salad sandwiches.  Have you tried it with chopped up celery?  How about chopped up English cucumber?  I even add a little bit of dried dill for a different flavor.  Yummy!  Oh and we're using mayonnaise now, not Miracle Whip!

So.....what's in your tuna?
