I'm not dead!

I'm lazy though. Especially with the holiday and all. I didn't have any splashy Thanksgiving-related recipes to post, so I just ate quietly offline.

But I have this ad left over from summer (June 1954, to be exact), and it may actually be a Jello salad I'm willing to try, perhaps for Christmas dinner. I am just a little nervous about the carrots. Shredded carrots embedded in Jello do not strike me as a pleasant textural experience. What else goes with pineapple and orange rind? And lemon-flavored pigs' hooves?

Wouldn't you kill to have been an ad copy writer in 1954? One phrase, repeated five times. Ka-ching!

Anyone know where I can get one of these molds? All the new ones these days are shaped like brains or hearts.
