  Notes:
  
  This can be served right away, but Neil likes it to chill for an
  additional couple of hours after the custard and whipped cream is
  added.
  
  Neil's Mom uses red jello, fruit cocktail, and fresh whipped cream.
  
  06/07/96 Made it using a 3-oz pk of Berry Blue Jello and a 3-oz pk of
  Raspberry Jello, fresh strawberries and frozen raspberries, leaving
  some fruit for garnish.
  
  Notes from the Chef:

  "Here's a dessert that is sitting in the fridge, waiting to be taken
  to my parents' house this afternoon. I got the recipe verbally from
  Neil's Mom. I filled in the quantities later on in the recipe since
  it was kind of vague. It looks good, although I think I overdid the
  fruit. I had already used about 4 cups in there, when Neil told me
  that his mother usually just uses a can of fruit cocktail, which is
  more like 2 cups." --Lisa
