fruit!

i love fruit. fruit is an easy thing to love. and it's an easy thing to prepare. it also reminds me of summertime. it makes these dreary, snowy/rainy days more bearable.


easy fruit salad

1 large perfectly ripe banana, sliced
5-6 medium strawberries, diced
1/2 cup halved grapes
1 kiwi fruit, peeled and diced
splash of fresh lemon juice
sprinkle of shredded coconut

makes 3 small servings or 1 large serving.


i am very excited about this:

it's an amaryllis bulb, that i've had for about 3 years now, and hasn't bloomed once. until now. i can't wait to see it! it's a bit late in the season, but better late than never :)
