Mellon Ballin'

Kara requested a fruit salad for the BBQ last Saturday and i was happy to oblique. Requirements: Mellons, baller , and some imagination. My mom would often bring the fruit salad to family picnic's and i like to carry on the tradition.







I am usually on the simpler side. I remember my mom's first started pretty simple as an emptied watermelon filled with balled fruit... ending in the later years as a semi elaborate pirate ship. Pineapple rings, kiwi slices and a maraschino cherry all toothpicked around the sides.. ahoy matee, with the watermelon edges done in triangle cutouts.




Taaaa DAAAAAA!
(simple but tasty)
