Grape Salad

Katera and Susan went to Ouachita University to one of Kitty’s wedding showers. The next day, we went to lunch at a tearoom. This salad was served and Katera asked for the recipe. They would not give it to us, but needless-to-say, we prevailed. Kitty worked with someone at the OBU Business Office who had a friend that had worked at the tearoom. This lady gave us the recipe. We LOVE it. It will be a regular part of our special family dinners, as well as a wonderful time to remember the fun weekend we in Arkadelphia. (this is the text from our recipe)
