We always have our traditional Thanksgiving and Christmas dishes. One dish is a green pea salad. It was a favorite of our very picky eater grandfather. It is made from green peas, diced delicious apples and diced American cheese, mixed with mayonaisse. He was about the only one who ate it except me. I love it. Of course the younger generations won't touch it with a ten foot pole, but they insist that it be on the table because it was Grandpaw's favorite holiday dish, even though he died before most of them were born. He died in 1976 at the age of 87.
