Hello my loves I had to make a quick unexpected out of town trip and  I have been unable to post- not having my pic files and not great Internet access- it’s torture!! So I am dropping you a quick post from pics that I had on my camera. I am in love with this dressing and always make double batches to add a punch of citrus on my daily salads. Where are the hearts you ask??? I know I know- I carved hearts out of grapefruit and they were spectacular, but I have no pics(AGHH!!!) Please enjoy and I will return home soon and continue my citrus week. Sending out ” kisses” Sweet Life.

    This zesty vinaigrette sounds like a winner and great for the salads at this time of the year.
