Glamour Girl Salad contributed by Mrs Mark Abilgaard

4 halves Barlett pears; 4 half slices pineapple; 4 small white candles; 8 small round peanuts; ¼ lb cheese; 1 maraschino cherry (I used a cherry tomato); cinnamon red hots (I used cinnamon powder); fruit mayonnaise dressing; 4 lettuce leaves

Place pear in centre of lettuce leaf for girl’s face. Use small peanuts for eyes and strip of cherry for mouth. Tint cheeks with cinnamon candy. Place candle in corner of mouth for cigarette and ½ pineapple ring around chin (small end of pear) for collar. Then put mayonnaise around top of head for hair and grate cheese over the mayonnaise, being careful not to get it on face. Light cigarette and serve at once. Serves 4.

What a great do-it-yourself salad idea for a children's birthday party!!!! Perhaps without the cigarette references!!! Anne
