Chopped Summer Salad with Spicy (Light) Buttermilk Ranch

A very bad, awful, terrible, no good thing happened yesterday. Something only a food blogger can understand. My very favorite seasoned (pictured below), perfectly rustic baking sheet was ruined. To the untrained eye it may look as if something good happened, after all, it looks new again, but to me, it’s a tragedy. Do you know how long it took to get it that way? To pop perfectly in photos? To be the perfect backdrop to countless food photo shoots? Years.
