nablow-ing it.

My parents are here! Let the wild Thanksgiving-Eli's Birthday Rumpus begin!

That's all the enthusiasm I can muster for this blog entry. I am completely exhausted.

I will keep trying! NaBloWriMo is kicking my butt! NaBuKiMo! Ow!

miscellany.

Thanks for your support and responses on my post yesterday about Sam. I went ahead and protected it. If you are on my "protected" list you should be able to see it - if not, you can message me and I'll add you to my protected list. You might have to register for xanga to do this. 

My delightful husband went out in the dark, cold, rain to get me a delicious homemade brownie from my best friend. Isn't that nice? Aren't I lucky?

In completely unrelated news, do you use a slow cooker?  Can you share some recipes? Vegetarian and not vegetarian?

I think my brownie might be home...

strawberry cream supreme

Here is today's recipe,  invented at dinner to assuage my poor hysterical son who desperately wanted a "special drink" with dinner...

Strawberrry Cream Supreme: Dairy- and Gluten-Free Frozen Drink Treat

By Mommy and Sam

 

(Beware: All quantities are approximate guesses. Requires straws, blender and whipped cream dispenser. Substitute generously to your family’s taste.)

 

Ingredients:

1/2  bag frozen strawberries

1 – 2 Tb sugar

1 cup cream-substitute – We used Mimic Crème

½ - ¾ cup “So Delicious” coconut vanilla milk

 

Instructions:

1.      In your blender, puree strawberries and coconut vanilla milk. (Save one or two frozen strawberries for garnish.) Thick consistency desired. Add liquid to achieve frozen thick pureed fruit base.

2.      Put your cream-substitute in the whipped cream dispenser, add your nitrous oxide and shake that stuff up as best you can. It gets a bit fluffy – not truly like whipped cream, but enough to fluff up the strawberry base.

3.      Fill up your drinking glass about 1/3 full with the strawberry base. Add a layer of whipped faux cream. Serve layered with a frozen strawberry on top and a straw. Mix together layers before drinking. The cold strawberries and the fluffy cream should blend together delightfully.

 

Enjoy!

overheard at school...

The laugh-out-loud moment of my day...  Students in a classroom about to say a blessing before a meal...

Students: (in a disorganized fashion) Baruch ata blam fmms fslkd ...

Teacher: You know, if I was God, I don't think I'd be too impressed with what's happening here!

I dunno, maybe you had to be there.  But it was pretty funny.

Tonight Scott and I went out to dinner with our buddies Sarah and Tim. Afterwards we all went to the roller rink to skate with Krista.  Unbeknownst to us, it was black-light night and also double-teen-birthday-party night. We skated a bit and then we came home and played some new Mario Bros. game that is Eli's early birthday present.

Birthday weekend continues!
