Family traditions

Every family has "that dish" that always seems to be requested for one reason or another. Ours is a Jello salad called Pink Paradise.  My understanding is that it was my great-gramma Sue's favorite thing to make.  At least we always associate it with her & it's popular enough (or we have enough people) that I always make a double batch.  I omit the nuts. It was a matter of preference, but we have enough family members with nut issues that leaving them out is a good idea.  The recipe "came from the 50’s" - a #2 can is the ”normal" can that's about the same size as a Progresso soup can & I use an 8-oz package of cream cheese per batch (the recipe calls for two 3-oz packages).
