Loveofquilts, Around my house ambrosia is called Abby Salad. It was one dish a 6-year-old daughter could make with minimal adult supervision as long as the ingredients were in a big bowl.. For us it was a family favorite but we don't get it often any more. Abby is now into sugar free, gourmet cooking and would not let mini-mellows cross her lips. Perhaps I should teach her children how to make Mommy Salad. Tee-Hee-Hee!
