jeweled winter fruit soup (delicious!)

14Jan10

Oh, I LOVED this.  Make this!  I served it to a few friends on Saturday and it was a huge success.  Very special – especially for a fruit salad (although I do love fruit).  The marinating syrup is delightfully refreshing - with fresh vanilla, ginger and citrus flavors.  It also presents beautifully.  This calls for some [...]
