When he took you on the floor you became an expert too and I always felt like Ginger Rogers floating around in his arms!! This is a recipe they shared with me one night while dining at their place and I'd like to share it with all of you. See less

- This is a very old fashioned dessert that has been around a long time probably when the icebox was popular. It makes a great Summer time dessert as there is no cooking and it is very refreshing on a hot Summer Day!! Enjoy !!!
