Today as I was driving down County Road R,

Overnight Fruit Salad

On the Menu Today~
~Overnight Fruit Salad~

I am a huge fan of fruit salads.
In fact, I have never tasted a fruit salad I didn't like.
Fruit salads are versatile, easy to prepare and
when fresh fruit is in season, nothing else compares.

When fresh fruit isn't in season...
canned fruit fills in beautifully...
Fruit salads are always a hit when served at parties,
summer picnic's, during fall football games and
when they make an appearance on your holiday table.
