While we were in California, they had a lot of strawberries, and a lot of avocados, on sale for really cheap at the gas-station-esque fruit stands in the central valley. Most of the produce sort of looked too ripe for shipping, so I'm hoping it was just stuff that wasn't going to make it to grocery stores. We may have gone through about 20 pounds of strawberries with not many people in not many days... yum. Did you know strawberries are my favorite food? Anyway, we made a very tasty salad upon returning to San Francisco, with strawberries, toasted walnuts, avocados, goat cheese, and Russian purple kale. The dressing was a spicy balsamic, made with a habanero-infused olive oil and some awesome balsamic vinegar. I could have eaten that all night long, but we ran out too soon...
I suppose we can make this at home, no trip to California required, now that I think about it...
(that's a pile of guacamole on the side. Another necessary part of being in CA was eating a ton of avocados. I did my part).
