      I love getting inspiration for new combos while traveling. We went away in June, and when I got home I planned out my editorial calendar way into the fall with all the ideas that I had been inspired by. This is such an unusual combo for a salad, I can see why it spoke to you.

      Ooh. I actually don't even remember the last time I had a kiwi in the states!!! But I LOVE them, especially when they're ripe and super soft - thank you for reminding me of this lovely fruit. This salad combination sounds amazing - I can just imagine the textures of the kiwi and avocado, juicy crisp tomatoes together in a delicious bowl.
