favorite recipe!

i was craving for pasta salad one day, out of nowhere. i went online and searched. i came upon the recipe below by accident . it was different from many other kinds of pasta salad in a way that reminds me of curry salad. But with grape, it is truly refreshing and wonderful.

after my first try, my mom and i are in love with it. i will keep the recipe here as an insurance. it is too good to be lost in times of my rage...
