Bacon & Brussels Sprout Salad

Well!  I'm back.  After a week of tests, I've been slowly cleaning up the apartment, finding the kitchen counter under a mess of dirty dishes, and actually making something other than oatmeal for pretty much the first time all week.  It feels great.  I also got a haircut and dyed my hair (red - I needed a change).  Tonight, I'll catch up on all my TV shows and binge on this salad.

I've made this salad so many times, now.  The first time I made it, I use the ingredients I had on hand, and thought it was almost too tangy.  Then, I made the actual recipe for dinner at my aunt's on Christmas Eve, and I didn't think it had enough flavor.  So I went back to how I made it the first time, and yeah.. I'm in love.  I could eat this salad pretty much endlessly and be perfectly happy.  Alex actually likes it, too!  He actually requested it again, which doesn't usually happen with salads for him.
