Cook chicken. Cool and dice the meat. Add the celery and pickle cubes. Mix the boiled dressing into the chicken mixture while dressing is warm. You may have to use several tablespoons of mayonnaise to make this wet enough. If you prefer not to use mayonnaise, make two recipes of Granny’s Boiled Dressing. Serve chicken salad cold.

Bette Fulghum grew up hearing her mother talk about the good dishes Fulghum’s grandmother prepared for the family. But her mother had no recipes for them, so Fulghum never had a chance to enjoy them.

To commemorate our 90th anniversary, we’ve compiled a time line that highlights the stories, contributors, and themes that have shaped this magazine — and your view of the Old North State — using nine decades of our own words.
From its northernmost point in Corolla to its southern terminus on Cedar Island, this scenic byway — bound between sound and sea — links the islands and communities of the Outer Banks.
Us? An icon? Well, after 90 years and more than 2,000 issues celebrating North Carolina from mountains to coast, we hope you’ll agree that we’ve earned the title.
After nearly a century — or just a couple of years — these seafood restaurants have become coastal icons, the places we know, love, and return to again and again.
