Foodie Friday: You know it’s summer time in Australia when seafood and salad are on the menu.

I know that technically it’s not officially summer for a few more days, but it’s certainly felt like it for a while already, so there’s no harm to be had in starting your summer menu a little early. And what better way to kick things off than with a delicious lobster and summer fruit salad.
