Watermelon and feta cheese, what a wonderful combination! I actually added more cheese than the recipe called for (double or more), but that's my only recommendation as this recipe was quite nice as is too. The liquor store ran out of ouzo so I used sambuca instead, which is also an anisette liquor but a bit sweeter. Because of that I thought I should add more vinegar to the dressing, which I did (and cut back a bit on the oil). Unusual combination maybe, but I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised! Thanks bluemoon downunder!

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
