Personal Notes:
For most of the summers during my youth, I spent at least a few weeks in St. Louis, visiting Grandma and Grandpa. On Saturdays, after returning from shul, we would all sit down for Shabbos lunch, usually consisting of deli meats and various leftovers from our big Friday night meal. During those lunches, I remember that, before getting to the main course, we would begin with a cold fruit soup, full of the wide variety of fruits that always filled Grandma's refrigerator. For a hot, muggy summer afternoon in St. Louis, it was perfect!

The recipe was obtained from Grandma, but she says it originated with Aunt Fayge.
