This is a jello salad my Grandmother Meyers made often and then my mother made it often and I have made it often, and usually always we have made it for potlucks and rarely have brought any of it home....We grew up calling it Fern salad. After my mother passed away I had been given a hand written cookbook of my grandmother's and discovered the recipe written in her book with the name "Fern's Salad". It must have been a friend of her's who had given her the recipe.
