Apparently I was not too crazy when I spoke about Tomatoes as fruits and veggies, as well as the true definition of Fruit Salad. Here's the recipie: 1/2 large watermelon in rind, seedless preferred 1 pint baby or grape tomatoes, quartered 1 handful fresh basil leaves, cut into fine strips 2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, or to taste x salt to taste Cut the watermelon in half lengthwise, and then crosswise into 1/4" slices. Cut off the rind. Arrange the watermelon slices on a platter. Top with the tomato quarters and the basil and mint strips. Drizzle with the olive oil and vinegar. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and serve. *** So I guess I am not crazy, although I have not tried the above recipie and cannot verify if it's any good.
