NOTES

This can be served right away, but Neil likes it to chill for an
additional couple of hours after the custard and whipped cream is
added.

Neil's Mom uses red jello, fruit cocktail, and fresh whipped cream.

06/07/96 Made it using a 3-oz pk of Berry Blue Jello and a 3-oz pk of
Raspberry Jello, fresh strawberries and frozen raspberries, leaving
some fruit for garnish.

Notes from the Chef:
"Here's a desert that is sitting in the fridge, waiting to be taken to
my parents' house this afternoon. I got the recipe verbally from
Neil's Mom. I filled in the quantities later on in the recipe since
it was kind of vague. It looks good, although I think I overdid the
fruit. I had already used about 4 cups in there, when Neil told me
that his mother usually just uses a can of fruit coctail (which is
more like 2 cups)." - Lisa
