but every now and then it's fun to change it up. i wanted a fruit salad a few sundays ago with dinner, but not one that added jello or cool whip or something crazy sugary.
i stumbled across this honey lime fruit salad on mel's kitchen cafe a while ago and have been going crazy waiting for strawberries to get to $1/lb so i could make it.
the stars aligned. the strawberries went on sale. and make it, i did!
oh my. we all couldn't get enough of it. so simple and so amazing. enjoy!

Sounds so yummy! Also equally delicious- a drizzle of honey and a few shakes of cinnamon on fruit salad. Might sound weird, but I was introduced to it by a sweet lady from my ward who brought dinner right after I had Joanna. SO GOOD!
I think I need some of that right now! Where did you come across MKC?
Just found your blog, love it!
This is perfect for my diet and looks quite delicious :) Thanks for the great idea
