Gelatin Boats

2 large oranges (halved)

4 oz. of packaged fruit gelatin (strawberry, orange, lime, etc.)

1 small mandarin orange segments (optional)

1 pint of fresh raspberries (optional)

8 small waxed paper triangles

8 party toothpicks

 

Squeeze the juice from the oranges (keep it to drink) without breaking the skin. Carefully scrap out the membrane and discard.     Make gelatin according to package directions, reducing the amount of water specified by a quarter if using fruit. Divide the fruit, if using b/w the orange halves, then fill with gelatin and refrigerate until set.     Take a wet knife and cut each orange half in half again. Thread a toothpick down the center of each waxed paper triangle, then set it in the gelatin
