Hi Ann, another Karen's BBQer here. This is my first year (only starting blogging in July) but it's been a great way of meeting fellow bloggers.
Hi-ya. Nice to meet you here at Karen's shindig. I brought a mess of steamed crabs, but they're going fast, so if you want to try them, better hurry. (Okay, so I ate most of them, but that's not the point!)
Great salad and blog! Over from the BBQ and am your newest follower. It's so nice to meet you!
Couscous Salad is one of my favorites. Will be making this :) thanks
Thanks for the shout out Ann, and hoping you are meeting many great people at the BBQ!
I've never tried Couscous--thanks for the recipe! :)
I bought a bag of couscous once but it went out of date as I didn't know what to do with it. I do now. Thanks :-) I've taken salmon madras style along to Karen's BBQ. Hope you managed to get a piece.

This Salad seems delicious. Certainly prefer over french fries. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Hi this is Munir over here at Focus.
Yum yum! I love couscous salad; this looks delicious! Happy Labour Day!
Mmmm yummy, love couscous!
I'm so glad it doesn't contain peppers, chillies or curry because those all make me ill.
OMIGOSH YUM!!! This sounds so good! I wish I would have been better prepared to know this was going on! I can't believe I missed it! I love Karen - now it's time I hop on over to say hello to her!
I'm attending Karen's BBQ too! Thanks for the recipe. I'm bringing sesame noodles.
Hi Ann, followed from comments back. I love the quill with the little skull on it! It's pretty and badass at the same time, and I'm a sucker for quills. Kind of foisted one on my CP for her blog-header when designing it. Looking forward to hanging out more.
Nice to meet you; Karen throws a great party!
I love your salad! I hope you will stop by and see me~
Hi Ann .. love couscous in all forms - so this salad looks so fresh and tasty ..
This just popped up in my Reader - who knows why? Who asks? Who wonders? - who just gets on with it .. me! Karen's BBQ has been a huge success and just adds a little bit of love to the end of our summer ..
Cheers - enjoy the Autumn that's here now - Hilary
Hey Mom, I made this tonight for a get together at a friends house. Super easy to make and it was good!! I think I am going to make it for our neighborhood party this coming weekend. Thanks!!

Hello, I came here to see what you had written for the first campaign challenge. Let me know if you do a story, I'd love to read it. Mine is up on my blog with the title - A mirror never lies
This looks great. The only time I tried couscous salad it tasted a bit bland. Just came back from Morocco where their couscous is so much fluffier. Must try your recipe.

Oooo, I just discovered couscous a few months ago, so I definitely need to try this recipe! So far I've just cooked it up with some spices, peas and chicken stock. This sounds yummy and fresh.
Mmm looks delicious! I've got some quinoa in the pantry that I still need to use, I might give this a try with that.
