Filipino Fruit Salad

It is mid-December. At this time I am contemplating on how I’m gonna start fixing our room…I promise to keep it neat and clean and pretty next year.

But there’s a scary pile of clothes, blankets and pillow cases on what used to be a study table.

I know that there are mutated dust mites hiding under the bed like the boogeyman. {I would need some kind of sword to fight them}

I don’t even know where I will start. Heck, I don’t know when I would start.

Oh well, it can wait until later. For now, I’ll just watch The A Team again and probably have myself a cup of this friggin’-ly good fruit salad. {Is there such a word?}

I hope there’s a part two of The A Team.

Sweet and creamy fruit salad never misses a special occasion here in the Philipines. There are different versions of this because everyone prefers different kinds of fruit but the most common is the Buco Salad {Coconut Salad}. It is kinda like this one but with lots of shredded coconut meat and without the cheese cubes.

Some people like this frozen and some, like my mom likes this with corn kernels…which I don’t.
