This
beauty of a side dish is one of those recipes that will stand the test of time.
Or as Rosalee would say, “this salad will time and test itself.” (Win a Date
with Tad Hamilton) Tad knew what she meant. LOL! Oh that movie is just so good.
It has heart AND it is funny, two qualities that make anything great. Like a
speech, a commercial, a chat with a friend, a tv series, and Ellen DeGeneres!

dry macaroni or ditalini
1½ c
mayonnaise
