Submitted by Small Town Cook

Well, I couldn't come up with a good honeydew or watermelon, but I found everything else, then replaced the grapefruit with oranges! It was great the way I made it, but this summer it'll be nice to make it as indicated, too! And, yes, it goes well with either yogurt OR cottage cheese, as I tried it with both! Many thanks!
