Here are some favorite old recipes for you to enjoy! The first one is from my late mother-in-law, Lola. It's published in the Mennonite Community Cookbook but she altered it to suit her own taste.
Dissolve gelatin in cold water. Add pineapple to sugar. Bring to boiling point and add gelatin. Stir until gelatin is dissolved. Add lemon and cherry juice. Cool. Mash cream cheese and add chopped cherries. Combine with pineapple mixture, adding a small amount at a time. Chill until slightly thickened. Whip cream and blend with salad mixture. Mold and chill. Serves 8. My note in the "My Collected Recipes" book: "Out of this world!"
