Dan,
I am super hungry at this hour and trying to find food to fill my stomach. Your post makes me stop and I start to browse your recipe. You are wonderful, Dan ! I love all of them but will choose to try out only 1 recipe tomorrow..
The fruit salad with honey dressing is really mouth watering…I wonder how it tastes like..ermm..sweet from the honey..and..may be a little sour from the lemon ??
You are excellent chef, Dan ! I will visit your blog often and needs to do some homework before buying some of the ingredients. Many ingredients don’t sound familiar to me
Thanks.

Thank you, Pearly. I’m far away from being an excellent chef, but I’m learning day by day.
Regarding the honey and sweetens all I can say is that it depends on everyone’s taste. I personally like very much the combination of sweet and sour and sweet and salty.
