Hey IC,

Just curious if you've read Brian's thread about priorities and what you think given all you and Miss IC have been going through?

Glad to hear you're better.

IC, Thanks in advance for your support of Big Blue, who are big underdogs. I really don't follow it much, I want them to win so I can taunt my brother ( he is a big Bucs fan).

IC, I just ordered a Giants jersey for my brother for his b-day next week...I picked Burress bc he caught the winning touchdown. I know my brother will really LOVE this present---NOT! What fun!

Thanks for rooting them on...I think it was that extra unexpected rooting from Michigan that eeked out a win!

Hugs, RJ

Woot!! Good for you! I'm very happy for the entire IC family. No place like home.

Ignoring for a moment the abomination of using Cool Whip on a home made Key Lime pie, fantastic news, IC. Now...to stay out of that place...that's the ticket.

Okay, now there's just no excuse:
Basic Whipped Cream Recipe
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup sugar, or to taste
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

RECIPE METHOD

Add the cream, and whip quickly with a wire whisk until the cream is slightly thickened. Now add the sugar and any flavorings. Continue to whip until cream forms soft peaks. Don't whip beyond the soft-peak stage, because the cream will get stiff and curdle. Whipped cream made with good-quality cream should last for 24-hours.

Chef Hairdog's comments: I actually use an electric mixer, not a whisk, due to my carpal tunnel syndrome following years of self-abuse. Make sure to stick the bowl and the beaters into the fridge for about 20 minutes ahead of time.

Music to these dairy farmer's daughter's ears We had Jersey's so fresh Jersey cream was always available along with homemade butter.

I've never understood Cool Whip!! Especially when homemade whipped cream is so easy.

I love whipped cream, but I adore the taste of Cool Whip... something chemical and artificial about it that I love. Go figure.

Hairdog, I noticed that you used the word "awesome" as an exclamation on another thread. Try not to let that happen again, okay? I'm trying to get that work expunged from the English language except when referring to volcanic eruptions, giant UFO's, tidal waves, the First/Second Coming of the Messiah, and other things that truly are awe-inspiring.

Likewise, "amazing," as a comment when people can't think of anything more creative to say, to wit: "wow that boob job/speech/dental plate/symphony/lasagna/two-headed goat is 'amazing.'"


ETA: So THAT'S why I have carpal tunnel syndrome.
