Grandma Armstrong loved to make Jello salads. She made them often, and they were frequently the subject of great debate in our family. Some of our family only like their Jello flavors to match the fruit that is in them — and they should never have vegetables! This was something that Grandma just didn’t understand. Consequently whenever Grandma Armstrong made Jello salad, there was usually another option served, made by mom, in order for everyone to have something they liked.
