Kona Salad

Okay... a dorky recipe post, but get over it and make it because this is my new favorite salad that we made this weekend and it is the shizzle.

1 Red Au Jus Pear (pick a juicy one)

1 bag Spring Mix salad

1/2 container of crumbled gorgonzola

1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

3/4 cup chopped smoked almonds

Dressing:

6 tbsp. orange juice

2 tbsp. rice vinegar

1 tsp. sugar

1/2 canola oil

1/4 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. black pepper

Also, these are two pictures of that same kind of passion flower that I saw before at Chick-Fil-A. We randomly saw them again growing at my aunt and uncle's house... my aunt had no idea what they were. My mom told me what they were called and that they were my grandmother's favorite flower. Now, I like to play around with the idea that because I'm seeing them often, she might be lingering around us and watching over the babies or something spooktacular like that... who knows but it's kind of a comforting thought.
