Fruit Salad and Cottage Cheese

It's been really cold in St. Louis, and it's about as far as you can get from the tropical life that we've lived the last five years with turquoise water, beautiful blue skies, and flowers and plants everywhere. Here, it's been varying shades of gray for months. I wanted something bright and colorful to eat to lift my spirits, so I made a fruit salad with what I had on hand—apples, mangoes, and oranges—although you could use bananas, pears, nectarines or peaches. The calorie count here is for what I had. Put me in a very tropical mood again!
