"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Personal Notes:
To make this dish fancier, after the Jello is set: Spread a thin layer of sour cream on top with thin slices of lime. The slices of lime should be cut with a slice in the middle and then twisted and set on top of the salad in a row pattern on a diagonal from corner to corner.
