Hawaiian Crest Salsa

I came up with this recipe at the spur of the moment to accompany the shrimp recipe I was preparing for a late lunch get-together with several of my sisters and my brother Ken. I had just visited the supermarket, so I had lots of fresh ingredients on hand. My sister Gayle said this recipe reminded her of Hawaii and crisp freshness along with the vibrant colors, hence the name. In retrospect, I can see the tawny glow of a beautiful beginning or ending of a tropical paradise day. I marvel at the ebb and flow of the vibrant waves, as they crest and fall against the warm sandy shoreline underneath my feet!
