Poppy Seed Fruit Salad

Drain 1 20 oz. can pineapple chunks, reserve ¼ cup juice. Combine pineapple with 1 orange, peeled and sectioned, 1 kiwi, peeled, halved, and sliced, 1 cup red or green grapes, and 1 cup quartered strawberries in a large bowl.

Stir reserved juice, ¼ grated lime peel, 2 tbsp. lime juice, 1 tbsp. honey, and 1 tsp. poppy seeds together.

Pour over salad and toss. Serves 4.
  

During the 1930s and early 1940s, most women preferred full-length aprons, covering their dress completely. It wasn’t until after WWII that the half-apron became so very popular.

Hope you're having a great summer!
