Wendy's Apple Pecan Chicken Salad

So a few weeks ago I was craving this tasty salad. Its roasted chicken, craisins, sweet apples, mixed greens, roasted pecans, bleu cheese all covered in yummy pomegranate vinaigrette. But the Wendy's closest to our house has been closed for remodeling. Weeks went by of me driving by Wendy's looking to see when they would open. Then finally I saw signs of life. It was around 8 O'clock in the evening as I saw a whole bunch of employees out in the front planting flowers and picking up trash. So I thought they must be open since it is looking so good, you know all remolded and freshness. So I pull into the back exit wending my way through all the construction cones, thinking that they were just there left over from the remodeling. I pull through to the drive through imagining how good that salad is going to taste. I noticed that they had a new digital order taker, but it wasn't lit. So I am sitting there waiting and waiting to hear a voice to take my order. Nothing happens. Can you guess what happened next? Well one of the employees planting flowers comes up to my car and says "were not open". And the sad thing is I wasn't even embarrassed I was just ticked that I didn't get my salad. But that might be my blond moment for the year : ) And just so you know... Wendy's opened two days later and I came back and got my salad.
