There are a 3 little tricks that make this salad special….
1.  Local honey
2.  Cinnamon
3.  Use 3 types of fruit at a time – “don’t go getting crazy”

So, “shop” your own fridge, farmers market or grocery, find what’s fresh and what you like.  After that, sharpen your knife, get out your cutting board and have fun with fruit!
