NOTES : "My great-aunt gave me the recipe for this rich, fruity salad, which goes especially well with a ham dinner. Before I even tasted it, I knew it would be good. I've never walked away from her kitchen disappointed." Submitted by Carolyn Shepherd, O'Neill, Nebraska. Posted to MM-Recipes Digest V4 #1 by crmcbride@juno.com (Caroline R McBride) on Jul 14, 1997
