Thanks to reader Helen Dritsas in Greece who was the first of about a
jillion people to send me this one:
While attending a marriage seminar on communication, David and his
wife, Gina listened to the instructor declare, "It is essential that
husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other."
He addressed the man, "Can you describe your wife's favorite flower?"
David leaned over, touched his wife, Gina's arm gently and whispered,
"Pillsbury All-Purpose, isn't it?"

To tell the truth, this salad is just as good made with grapefruit,
tangerines, or blood oranges. Use whatever is fresh and good at your
market.

The juice of 1 orange
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
