December 2008 - Header Picture

This great picture was an Earl family Christmas card that Grandma Erma and Grandpa Milton Earl sent out. This is Clair (left) and Gary (right).

How did Grandma Earl get two teenage boys to dress up in their suits and look interested in their Christmas presents for the picture?! With a teenager myself, I am impressed!

Grandma Earl's Lime Jello Salad

LIME JELL-O SALAD

1 1g. pkg. Lime Jell-O
1 ½ C. boiling water (part pineapple juice)
1 C. drained, crushed pineapple
1 C. cottage cheese
1 C. nuts (usually walnuts and they are optional or can be reduced in quantity)
1 C. whipped cream with vanilla and sugar

Combine lime Jell-O and water; dissolve Jell-O. Add pineapple and chill until wobbly. Fold in nuts, cottage cheese, and whipping cream. Chill until firm.

This recipe is from Grandma Erma Earl. This was always a favorite of mine.
