Putting in Place

My life seems to be a series of putting things into place. The house clean and in place. My children's hearts and attitudes in place. Our homeschool in place to be successful. My marriage in place. And God in place at the head leading it all.
Then of course there is the proper french use of the term "Mise en Place" when in the kitchen. The kitchen is where I am happiest and most confident in my abilities. It is my creative outlet. With a big chef's knife in my hand preparing to cook a meal for my family all seems right.
Welcome to my ramblings about Mise en Place!

Chinese Chicken Salad Dressing

This is the salad dressing that first made my kids like salad.


Chinese Chicken Salad Dressing




  • 2 T. smooth peanut butter
  • 1/4 c. rice wine vinegar
  • 1/4 c. soy sauce
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • 1 tsp. chili oil, if desired
  • grated ginger to taste, if desired
  • 1/4 c. canola oil

Put the peanut butter in a bowl and slowly wisk in soy sauce. Add vinegar, sugar, sesame and chili and wisk. Add the oil either by slowly wisking in or putting everything into a mason jar with the oil and shaking until combined. Chill for 30 minutes in order to let the sugar dissolve. Shake again to combine before dressing your greens.
