You and countless others, Rusty. :-)
We had green jello with celery and shredded carrots -- I don't think Mom
used cabbage in it. Gotta have a dollop of mayo on top. I always found
it refreshing. Orange jello had carrots with the mayo on top, I
liked that, too. Haven't made it in years. Maybe for Easter.
