This morning, Paige accidentally slept through the alarm she set for herself. She had to get up early to prepare food for a picnic she was hosting that started at 2:00 pm. Paige jumped out of bed and rushed to the kitchen. Paige had to prepare chicken that she was going to grill for her guests, along with macaroni salad, a tossed salad with spinach, tomatoes, red onion, cucumbers, and croutons. Paige went into the refrigerator and pulled out the partially thawed chicken. She threw the chicken onto the countertop to let it finish thawing.
While the chicken was thawing on the countertop, Paige began to cook the macaroni for the macaroni salad. In a separate bowl, Paige mixed together the seasoning for the macaroni salad with the mayonnaise, shredded carrots, and celery. She set the bowl with the dressing mixture off to the side while she seasoned and sliced the chicken into strips.
