Default Another easy light summer dessert

Used a mini-chopper to reduce a chunk of Trader Joe's candied ginger[1] to
sand-grain-sized particles, which I sprinkled onto honeydew. Lin had the
idea to add vanilla yogurt. Yummy.

Given more time, I might have tried freezing the ginger before putting it
into the chopper, because the stuff was pretty gummy, and I needed to work
it between my thumb and fingers to get the "grains" to spread out. Maybe
sprinkling cornstarch would have helped (that's what's on the outside of
marshmallows), but I'm not sure.

I called it dessert in the Subject line because that was how we ate it, but
it could serve as a salad or breakfast if you prefer.

[1] Trader Joe's candied ginger has quite a bite to it. I'm not sure this
would work as well with a lesser product.
