then chopped up celery and stirred it in until it looked like a nice ratio of crunchy to not crunchy

added just a little bit of onion. almost added more, but i'm glad i didnt. the onion was what i was most uncertain about.

i threw in a few grapes cut in half, added a few more grapes, then added more grapes.

dumped in a blob of mayo. mixed it up. added a bit of salt. it made great sandwiches.

it was good. just the right amount of crunch, just the right amount of sweet. i'm very proud of myself. i'm not comfortable at all cooking without measurements to follow. but since i'd recently eaten my moms salad, my mouth helped me guess at the ratios.
