I am in the mood for J-E-L-L-O!

It is summer time now, and I am always in the mood for some fruit jello! Cherry, Strawberry, Orange, Lime! OoOh so yummy! And I have never made a Jello Mold. I bought two molds from the thrift in mint condition and am so ready to use them! I have always made just regular jello from the box recipe but that's it and sometimes would add cool whip on top!

But there are so many recipes out there, I see ads with recipes for Jello, I also see this awesome website that I go to, where I got the idea to try out vintage recipes, she just tries out the freakiest ones which I give her credit for but I would like to try out all vintage recipes not just the weird ones...her site is www.midcenturymenu.com, You should check it out, its pretty cool!


Anyway, she has some weird recipes that are jello but they are weird but some she said the verdict was good! I will need to try them! But here are some ads I found with recipes attached and will need to try them...I am going to be brave because some look gross! But hey it's vintage so I am ready to try these =)
