    Angie this salad looks beautiful! I love that you used date syrup. I’ve used puréed dates to sweeten desserts but haven’t used date syrup. I’m going to have to look to see where I can find it here.

    This is a beautiful fall salad I’ll be sure to try. Thank you.

    @sofyan Ya-anHokkaido is one sort of pumpkins and its skin is edible. Besides, it tastes creamier and sweeter.
