Outside is grey  and windy , we can't do a lot about that ..but we can bring a little bit of colour to us in other forms.
We can play with colours of our clothes,light in the house and …food !
Vegetables and fruit can give us not only health and balance but a bit of happiness.
I love this salad not only for its great taste and vitamins  boost but as well for the colours , only looking at the bowl can make us very happy .
