Pear Salad!!

Pear Salad
This is my awesome cousin...ok Trent's awesome cousin, but I like to claim her as my own, made me lunch for me and Kamille the other day. How cool is that. Your friend calls says "Lets do lunch!" And she decides she is going to cook it all herself. I just have to provide some salmon I have in my freezer. Really, there is nothing better than that. Tracy is an awesome cook and for lunch she made Apricot Salmon, Pesto Baguettes and Pear Salad. This pear salad was to die for. And I am not kidding. I made it for my family the other night and they died over it too. So I got permission from Tracy to post this recipe, cuz I got a really good pic of it. Just know....that if you see a recipe from Tracy pop up on "Tried and True Ladies" then try it...you won't be disappointed.
