First off – if you haven’t noticed, the blog has a whole new look! It’s been in the works for a few weeks now and I am very happy with the result! Please let me know if you can’t find something. All of my pages have been updated – I pulled together the FAQ from all of the e-mails I have gotten, I added a disclaimer about the content of the blog, and updated the blogroll to include new friends and favorites!

We had a couple of friends over about a week ago or has it been longer? I’m not really sure. Life is a little crazy right now! Anyway, I made this for dinner, and they brought salad fixings over. The salad was awesome. Mike raved about it for a few days, so it got me thinking…. Mike’s mother makes this red wine vinegar dressing that we love and I knew it would go perfectly with the fruit in this salad – ta da this salad was born!

Enjoy!
