Mom Jello Rules

Green Jello with cottage cheese Days of my youth Unwritten law it has to be green Or you cannot add the cottage cheese Mom’s rule Red Jello with bananas Days of my youth Unwritten law it has to be red Or you cannot add the banana circles Mom’s rule Orange Jello with shredded carrots Days of my youth Unwritten law it has to be orange Or you cannot add the shredded carrots Mom’s rule

Thanks for sharing the days of your youth via Jello and colors. Very clever. Simply written and a FAV. Panagiota

My mother was an absolutist about it.

I love green jello with segments of mandarin oranges, something about the color contrast - I think I will try red jello with banana (any particular flavor? I'm leaning strawberry)

It was either cherry or strawberry. Both worked but no other color of jello with banana rings.
