    Martini glass filled with fruit salad.

    To go with dinner, I made a fruit salad (requested by Dino's mom). This is the way I love having fruit salad, and I never thought it was a huge deal until people started asking me to make it. I just cut up tons of different fruits (in this case it was watermelon, grapes, green apples, peaches, blackberries, strawberries, kiwis & bananas) and squeeze about half a lemon over the top to keep certain fruits from browning. I mix it all together and it's a fantastic dessert! It's a bit time consuming to cut up all of the fruit, but it's super easy and well worth it. It's also great for breakfast with a scoop of plain or vanilla yogurt. Yum!
