Friday Treats {1}: Madonna Salad

Okay we all have kids, and with it being summer time, we're having cook-outs, get-togethers, and end of summer parties.  This side is a dish that my kids demand that my mother-in-law makes every time we get together.  In fact, before I met my husband I had never had it. Evidently it's something that has been in my husband's family for years and it's gotten to the point it's so popular Mom has to make a double batch to make sure there is enough to go around. Light and fluffy it is a family favorite. I've actually made this twice and it's not as hard as it looks but I gaurntee it's delicous. And yes, Alice, there is indeed apricot baby food in it.   Enjoy!
