Carefully Add Layers
When making a layered gelatin salad, it's helpful to gently spoon (rather than pour) each layer onto the previous layer of gelatin so it doesn't break through the other layers. —Janet Biersach, Mauston, Wisconsin

Hello L.T., thanks for stopping by my neck of the woods. I love your jello salad. It is sure festive looking for the Holidays. Notice I didn't dare put the caloric values or disvalues (my word) on my Sausage balls recipe. But once a year, we might get by. I like your blog. Come again dear girl and lets enjoy the season together.
