You know what I have been doing lately (when out of season, particularly) is chunking watermelon and cantaloupe--occasionally a fresh pineapple, as well, and taking that with colorful plastic sword picks. Everyone, particularly the children, absolutely love it. It is easy to fix, serve, and is a real eye-catcher on the table. Takes almost no time and is always a resounding success!

Yes and it is great . Serve with some rice and sweet Hawaian Bread.

Soo Goood
