Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I've had so much sugar and carbs the past two weeks that I think I'm turning into a giant dessert. I feel so blah and bloated. Even my teeth have this weird feel to them, as if they're screaming eat a bowl of soup, will ya?!
So I'm not going to participate in National Whipped Cream Day, but you can feel free to do so (unless you don't want to break that New Year's diet you're on - you're still on that, right?). Here's a quick recipe for whipped cream from AllRecipes, and these recipes have whipped cream on top of them: Cranberry Chocolate Cake with Rummy Whipped Cream, Pumpkin Cake with Whipped Cream and Pecan Praline, and Cherry Chocolate Shortcakes with Kirsch Whipped Cream. Of course, Cool Whip is always good in a pinch (I know, it's whipped "topping" not cream). By the way, whatever happened to chocolate flavored Cool Whip? I used to love that. I'd freeze it and make a dessert out of just that.
And for those of you who do "other" things with whipped cream, you should be ashamed of yourself.

And gelatin is crushed animal bones. :(

Why eat it in your pseudo whipped cream when it is so easy to just whip the cream yourself? Just get some heavy cream or whipping cream, put it in a bowl and whip it for about a minute. It is easier to whip than egg whites and oh, so delicious. Just make sure you serve it right away because it does not hold its peaks for too long. If you want that, you have to revisit gelatin.
Cheers!
