Glad to see there are still some Salad Freaks about! This has been the perfect week for salads....the weather is crazy hot, especially for May.

The shrimp/mango salad sounds yum, 100, but it wasn't my pin. Mangos are so difficult for me to buy - they're expensive and never seem to ripen properly - so I try to ignore recipes with them. Hope your sick kid is feeling better.


Going2BeThatGirl - Steak....yummmmm.
