Question: how do you think this would taste?
i have a “old family recipe” (taken off a jello instant pudding box) for a lemon cream pie – sweet & simple
cream cheese, instant lemon jello, milk, and pie crust
and it is awesome!
so i’m going to a get together of about 16 or so tomorrow & i’m bringing dessert…i’m not feeling great & i’m broke, so i thought i’d make this, but one won’t be enough and what if people don’t like lemon?
so do you think it would taste ok if i switched out the lemon pudding for chocolate and butterscotch (separately of course)?
or is there something else this *cheap* and simple i can make?
i have to travel about an hour so nothing frozen, but cold is ok
honestly i feel like my blood sugar is at about 20 right now – i’m eating so i have no clue why – but i’m way to light headed to make anything that takes real work – i love to bake/cook…but not right now

FWD: Free Neiman-Marcus Cookie Recipe
This is a true story… Please forward it to everyone that you can…. You will have to read it to believe it….
My daughter and I had just finished a salad at Neiman-Marcus Cafe in Dallas & decided to have a small dessert. Because both of us are such cookie lovers, we decided to try the “Neiman-Marcus Cookie”. It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and the waitress said with a small frown “I’m afraid not.” Well” I said, “would you let me buy the recipe?”
With a cute smile, she said YES”. I asked how much and she responded, “Only two fifty, it’s a great deal!” I said with approval, “just add it to my tab”.. Thirty days later, I received my VISA statement from Neiman-Marcus and it was $ 285.00. I looked again and remembered I had only spent $ 9.95 for two salads and about $ 20.00 for a scarf. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it said, “Cookie Recipe – $ 250.00″. That’s outrageous!!!
I called Neiman’s Accounting Dept. and told them that the waitress said it was “two-fifty,” which clearly does not mean “two hundred and fifty dollars” by any POSSIBLE interpretation of the phrase. Neiman-Marcus refused to budge.. They would not refund my money, because according to them, “What the waitress told you is not our problem. You have already seen the recipe – we absolutely will not refund your money at this point.” I explained to her the criminal statutes which govern fraud in Texas. I threatened to refer them to the Better Business Bureau and the State’s Attorney General for engaging in fraud. I was basically told, “Do what you want, we dont give a damn, and we’re not refunding your money.” I waited a moment, thinking of how I could get even,or even try to get any of my money back. I just said, “Okay, you folks got my $ 250.00, and now I’m going to have $ 250.00 worth of fun.”
I told her that I was going to see to it that every cookie lover in the United States with an e-mail account has a $ 250.00 cookie recipe from Neiman-Marcus… for free..She replied, “I wish you wouldn’t do this” I said, “Well you should have thought of that before you ripped me off”, and slammed down the phone on her.. So, here it is!!! Please, please, please pass it on to everyone you can possibly think of. I paid $ 250.00 dollars for this… I don’t want Neiman-Marcus to ever get another penny off of this recipe….

Question: What can I make out of this…?
One day while I was working, I work graveyard shift at a hotel, I went to the breakfast room and I got some coffee to keep me awake, but I don’t like regular coffee, so I put together… ice, chocolate milk, coffee, 1 creamer and 2 sugars. I put the “recipe” on a piece of paper so that I could remember and I put it by the coffee. I got off at 7 AM that Sunday morning and I wouldn’t return until the following Thursday. When Thursday came the note was still there and it turns out that the guests enjoyed the drink, and we had to even order more chocolate milk early cause we ran out. My manager wants me to come up with another one so that we can put one up one day and the other the next….
Heres what I have to work with… Coffee(dark, regular, decaf), two types of creamer(french vanilla, irish cream), orange juice, chocolate and white milk, sugar, sweetner, lemon juice, 4 different flavors of jelly/ jam. What sounds good?

You don’t have a lot to work with. Tell your boss to buy some more flavored creamers, flavored coffees, or flavored syrups. It wouldn’t add a whole lot to the expenses and the recipe possibilities would be endless.
Question: is this story true?

Question: like this joke?
Two little old ladies
Two little old ladies were sitting on a park bench outside the local town hall where a Flower Show was in progress.
One leaned over and said to the other, “Life is so darned boring; we never have any fun anymore.
For $ 5.00 I’d take my clothes off and streak through that stupid Flower Show!”
“You’re on!” said the other old lady holding up a $ 5.00 bill.
The first little old lady slowly fumbled her way out of her clothes and, completely nude, streaked (as fast as an old lady can) through the front door of the Flower Show.
Waiting outside, her friend soon heard a huge commotion inside the hall followed by loud applause and shrill whistling.
The naked and smiling old lady came through the exit door surrounded by a cheering crowd.
“What happened?” asked her waiting friend.

Question: Poll How many of yous think that this is a very inspirational story?
10 points to the preson who can tell my the name of it,and who wrote it?
I spent the week before my daughter’s June wedding running last-minute trips to the caterer, florist, tuxedo shop, and the church about forty miles away. As happy as I was that Patsy was marrying a good Christian young man, I felt laden with responsibilities as I watched my budget dwindle . . . so many details, so many bills, and so little time. My son Jack was away at college, but he said he would be there to walk his younger sister down the aisle, taking the place of his dad who had died a few years before. He teased Patsy, saying he’d wanted to give her away since she was about three years old!
To save money, I gathered blossoms from several friends who had large magnolia trees. Their luscious, creamy-white blooms and slick green leaves would make beautiful arrangements against the rich dark wood inside the church.
After the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding, we banked the podium area and choir loft with magnolias. As we left just before midnight, I felt tired but satisfied this would be the best wedding any bride had ever had! The music, the ceremony, the reception – and especially the flowers – would be remembered for years.
The big day arrived – the busiest day of my life – and while her brides maids helped Patsy to dress, her fiancée Tim, walked with me to the sanctuary to do a final check. When we opened the door and felt a rush of hot air, I almost fainted; and then I saw them – all the beautiful white flowers were black. Funeral black. An electrical storm during the night had knocked out the air conditioning system, and on that hot summer day, the flowers had wilted and died.
I panicked, knowing I didn’t have time to drive back to our hometown, gather more flowers, and return in time for the wedding. Tim turned to me. “Edna, can you get more flowers? I’ll throw away these dead ones and put fresh flowers in these arrangements.”
I mumbled, “Sure,” as he be-bopped down the hall to put on his cuff links. Alone in the large sanctuary, I looked up at the dark wooden beams in the arched ceiling. “Lord,” I prayed, “please help me. I don’t know anyone in this town. Help me find someone willing to give me flowers – in a hurry!”
I scurried out praying for four things: the blessing of white magnolias, courage to find them in an unfamiliar yard, safety from any dog that may bite my leg, and a nice person who would not get out a shotgun when I asked to cut his tree to shreds. As I left the church, I saw magnolia trees in the distance. I approached a house . . . no dog in sight. I knocked on the door and an older man answered. So far so good . . . no shotgun. When I stated my plea the man beamed, “I’d be happy to!” He climbed a stepladder and cut large boughs and handed them down to me.
Minutes later, as I lifted the last armload into my car trunk, I said, “Sir, you’ve made the mother of a bride happy today.”
“No, Ma’am,” he said. “You don’t understand what’s happening here.”
“What?” I asked.
“You see, my wife of sixty-seven years died on Monday. On Tuesday I received friends at the funeral home, and on Wednesday . . He paused. I saw tears welling up in his eyes. “On Wednesday I buried her.” He looked away. “On Thursday most of my out-of-town relatives went back home, and on Friday – yesterday – my children left.
I nodded.
“This morning,” he continued, “I was sitting in my den crying out loud. I miss her so much. For the last sixteen years, as her health got worse, she needed me. But now nobody needs me. This morning I cried, ‘Who needs an eighty-six-year-old wore-out man? Nobody! ‘I began to cry louder. ‘Nobody needs me!’ About that time, you knocked, and said, “Sir, I need you.”
I stood with my mouth open.
He asked, “Are you an angel? The way the light shone around your head into my dark living room . .”
I assured him I was no angel.
He smiled. “Do you know what I was thinking when I handed you those magnolias?”
“No.”
“I decided I’m needed. My flowers are needed. Why, I might have a flower ministry! I could give them to everyone! Some caskets at the funeral home have no flowers. People need flowers at times like that and I have lots of them. They’re all over the backyard. I can give them to hospitals, churches – all sorts of places. You know what I’m going to do? I’m going to serve the Lord until the day He calls me home!”
I drove back to the church, filled with wonder. On Patsy’s wedding day, if anyone had asked me to encourage someone who was hurting, I would have said, “Forget it! It’s my only daughter’s wedding, for goodness’ sake! There is no way I can minister to anyone today.” But God found a way. Through dead flowers.
“Life is not the way it’s supposed to be. It’s the way it is.
The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.”
