Mesclun with Pears and Pumpkin Seeds

Sometimes it is hard to get in any salad at holiday gatherings, but I figured if I made a salad to take to Thanksgiving Dinner, then I would probably eat it.
This salad is really easy. I was really wanting to try the beautiful red pears that I have seen in the grocery store and this salad is an easy way to use them.
I just used a basic spring greens mix and then whisked up the dressing and added the toasted pumpkinseeds. Easy and delicious.
I also included some pics of the tree stump cake and other goodies I recently made for a 80th birthday party celebration. The man we were celebrating had a career in forestry, hence the tree stump cake. There are more details on my other blog- sugar by Mary Ann- where I will be detailing some of the desserts that I am making as ordered.
