This sounded like a really pretty, really appropriate salad for Easter. After all, what could represent Easter more than gum drops? (I know what you're thinking,but I say it's a tie!) This could be a real conversation piece on your buffet table, and you know the kids will delight in it! Recipe was submitted by Starshineeliz on TOH.

1 lb gumdrop (use the fruity, no licorice) |
1 lb red seedless grapes (halved) |
1 (16 ounce) package miniature marshmallows |
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained, reserve juice |
1 cup chopped nuts |
1 lemon, juice of |
3/4 cup pineapple juice (from crushed pineapple) |
2/3 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon white vinegar |
1/4 cup flour |
Directions:
1. Mix the gumdrops, grape halves, marshmallows, pineapple, and nuts in a large bowl.
