Notes

I have fond memories of a super tastY fruit salad that my mom made when we were kids. Over the years I came across many fruit salads but never like the one she made. Found this one and I don’t know for sure if it’s the salad because Mom has been gone for years now but it is awesome and it sure seems like the one. Definitely worth making though.
