Fruit Salad with an Orange Vanilla Glaze

We eat a lot of fruit in our house.  The little dude just loves it, so I always like to mix things up a little.  This fruit salad has a lovely orange vanilla glaze drizzled over the top, then I added a dollop of my homemade mascarpone and some toasted almonds.  It would make a great breakfast, afternoon snack or healthy dessert with dinner.  I used a combination of strawberries, watermelon (I used a cookie cutter to cut stars – just for a bit of fun), rockmelon, mandarin, and blueberries – but use whatever fruit is in season
