The crickets are serenading the evenings. They sing their hearts out, each with its own song.  I love the songs of the crickets.  I leave the windows open and let the breeze flow through with the lovely songs of the crickets singing me to sleep.

Ingredients:
4 zucchini - roughly skinned and sliced
4 - 5 cloves of garlic - chopped fine
1 medium red onion - chopped small
4 stalks celery - chopped small
¼ cup fresh Italian parsley - chopped
½ cup instant barley
Lemon slice for garnish
For the Dressing:
Juice of 2-3 lemons
½ cup olive oil
½ tsp. red pepper flakes
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dried oregano
Cook barley as directed and set aside.
In a large bowl combine all of the ingredients for the salad.  Add the cooked barley and toss.
In a small bowl prepare the dressing and stir.  Add to the salad and toss.
Garnish with a lemon slice.
Enjoy with Love,
Catherine
