Tomorrow my child has his very first field trip ever. I’m going to use the term “field trip” loosely here since I have to go along and his school is otherwise cancelled for the day. Fun for the kiddos, but not fun for me. Not that I won’t relish in the memory of my child’s first field trip with his school buddies, but I know how these things go. It will be two hours herding a bunch of wild animals (my child being the wildest). Plus, I spent all day yesterday thinking I had Friday to get work done, realized I did not, had to change my schedule around and make it all fit into today. Then I spent all day today thinking it was Friday, but realized that it’s actually just a three day weekend minus the help.

Don’t worry, I know I’m being overly dramatic. I’m actually really looking forward to spending the day with my favorite little person (assuming he will be on his best behavior) and also assuming I will get in a seriously long run.

Hormones, you guys. #killer

Anyway, before I bore you too much with my stuff let’s talk about what’s important here, SALAD.

Yes, another salad. I hope you love salads because they are one of my favorite meals of all time and I make them a lot! Besides, tis the season. Right? It’s also fruit season. Being May and late-Spring over here in California, that means lots of stone fruit popping up everywhere, berries, lingering peas and kohlrabi.

I shared a crunchy shredded kohlrabi salad earlier in the week where the spicy vegetable played a key role. In this salad, it is much more subtle, but a perfect complement to the sweet fruit and creamy avocado.

Looking for some protein, I quickly baked some shrimp, giving it the perfect spicy kick without weighing it down.
