Brunch and a gift!

Last Saturday we had some friends over for brunch. We had cinnamon rolls, fruit , a breakfast casserole and Fruit Salad! I thought I would share the salad it is delicious and very low calorie, even better.

Fruit Salad

1 can unsweetened pineapple chunks

1 can reduced-sugar sliced pears, drained.

1 can reduced-sugar sliced peaches, drained.

1 1/2 cups seedless red grapes

1 pkg. (3 oz) cook and serve vanilla pudding mix

2 firm bananas

3 tbsp. lemon juice

1 jar (10 oz) maraschino cherries well drained.

Drain Pineapple, reserving juice in a 1 cup measuring cup. In a bowl, combine the pineapple, pears, peaches, and grapes. Cover and chill. Add enough water to pineapple juice to measure 1 cup. Pour into a small saucepan. Whisk in pudding mix. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. remove from the heat: set aside to cool to room temperature.

Slice bananas into a bowl. drizzle with lemon juice; gently toss to coat and let stand for 5 minutes then drain. Add bananas and cherries to chilled fruit. Add cooled pudding; toss gently to combine. refrigerate until serving.

I think on Weight Watchers 1/2 cup is 2 points!

I also thought I would tell you about some really good movies that my girls got for Christmas...

The Love Comes Softly Series.

This series was written by Jeanette Oke.

These videos are about the life and struggles of a family as they travel West to begin a new life. Tragedy strikes and they are led down a path they had not planned. God is present and leading every day. I loved this series as it teaches very real truths about making choices every day to choose God's Way.

It is definitely a chick thing but a very sweet series!
