Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe has been in my family for as long as I can remember and has always been a staple for Thanksgiving. Mama had fresh cream to use, but I just use evaporated milk and It turns out fine. You can make a larger portion by adding more fruit. A simple yet delicious addition to any meal.

When we first moved to Take It Easy, we just had a small porch and we definitely wanted a big one so we could sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. We added a large deck, too and enjoyed it for many years. Papaw's green thumb really helped to make it beautiful.
