One of mom's lunch bunch recipes, she would make this for bridge club set. Bloody Mary's, Ediths Bristow's no-knead cinnamon twists, cheese straws, and spiced nuts would round out the menu. I suppose it could work for a retro bunco party these days.

- Wash two pink grapefruit, cut in half.
- Section and reserve the fruit.
- Make basket by making a cut in each rind half from each side laterally1/4 inch thick and almost all the way across leaving a bridge in the middle.
- Lift the two pieces of rind up to form a handle, tie together with

- I can remember eating this with all the gals, and it was really delicious, if unexpected with the sherbert curry dressing.
- Again, it is frou frou from the fifties, a toast to the ladies who lunched.
