    1      package       (3 oz) cherry Jell-o
    1      package       (3 oz) lime Jell-o
    3      cups          boiling water
    1 1/2  cups          cold water
    1 1/2  cups          graham cracker crumbs
      1/3  cup           butter -- melted
    1      package       (3 oz) lemon Jell-o
      1/4  cup           sugar

    1      packet        Dream Whip -- prepared
 
 Prepare the orange, cherry and lime Jell-o's separately, dissolving each in 1
 cup of the boiling water and adding 1/2 cup of the cold water.  Pour each
 flavor into separate 8" square pan.  Chill until firm, at least 3 hours or
 overnight.  Cut into 1/2" cubes.
 Mix crumbs with butter. Set aside about 1/4 cup for garnish, if desired, and
 press remaining crumb mixture evenly over bottom and up sides to within 1"
 from top of 9" springform or tube pan.  Chill.  Dissolve lemon Jell-o and
 sugar in 1 cup boiling water; add pineapple juice.  Chill until slightly
 thickened.  Blend in whipped topping.  Fold in Jell-o cubes.  Spoon into
 crumb-lined pan.  Chill overnight or until firm.  Just before serving, run a
 spatula around sides of pan; then gently remove sides.  Garnish with reserved
 crumbs or with additional whipped topping and flaked coconut, tinted, if
 desired.

 NOTES : This is one of my family's favorite desserts.  You can change the
 Jell-o flavors and/or tint the Cool Whip with food coloring, for different
 holidays, e.g., red and green for Christmas.
