I made this last night and forgot to review it! It is a wonderful light salad that I served with Curried Shrimp With Pineapple Salsa #114147. The fruit in the salad was the perfect combination for the spicy shrimp dish. I did not find pears at the grocery so I used jicama that was julienne and instead of the blue cheese I opted to use the feta which I had on hand. The salad greens were a spring mix. The dressing called for raspberry balsamic vinegar which I did not have. I used regular dark balsamic vinegar. This is a salad I am sure to make again. Thanks

<p>A Very Happy Stay At Home Mom!!!! I have a soon to be 11year old that lives with his dad, his name is JayJay, and 3 living at home with me, and 1 on the way....I'm lovin' life! Ashton will be 8 in January, he's the smartest kid I know! Wrylie will be 6 in February and he's got more passion and caring in his little pinkie than most adults I know!!! And my very personal pride and joy Hennessey. She was born on the 27th of September 2007 and she's my little dollbaby. I love being at home with my children..love paying for ALL the stuff my 2nd grader brings home...soccer fees, and basketball fees, and book orders...I love cartin' my kindergartner around, and then coming home and cuddlin' with my little girl, and shopping for her favorite thing...shoes. My husband and I are as tight as 2 people can be, and I hate it when he leaves for work and can't wait until the clock strikes 4:30 because I know that means he's on his way home. Life is good. I couldn't ask for more.</p>
