Thanks, Paula, for the ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL FRUIT SALAD recipe ~ It's a great keeper! Although I like watermelon, I usually stay away from including it in salada like this, but this time I was happy to use it! The fruits went together so nicely, but it was the use of the nectar & lime that really gave it something special! Many thanks! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Game]
