Those were the days weren't they, when you could go to Flagstone's with the family and get a good meal at a decent price! I had this fruit salad many times and since I made it, now my kids love it too! I make it in the summer when I can get bing cherries and pit them myself, rather than using the canned, which I have never seen in the stores. This is so lovely, and it was one of my favorite desserts as a child. I was always asking my mom and dad to take me there so I could have some! It's so funny that you posted the recipe. I am SO HAPPY!!! Thanks for the memories, and especially for this memorable recipe Denise! Karen -
Very nicely done, Denise. Only change I made was to add a little more lemon juice as we all like a slightly tarter taste. Thanks for posting.
