Hello blog pals, we're catching up on some mail today. First, we received a great postcard from our pal Hammie. Hammie and his human companions often take long hikes; we love hiking too! Thanks Hammie!
Next, several weeks ago we were talking to our pal Beanie about an American product, Jello. Beanie said that have a different kind over in England, and before we knew it...
...we received a package of Hartley's strawbeary jelly in the mail! So today, chef Ben is going to make some. Take it away Ben!
"Well, furst you unrapp the pakaj of jellee an put it in a bowl. Jerry help me unrapp it."
"Then, you put it in the mikrowwave for a little bit. Don't forget to pres start!"
"Mak shur you wach karfullee so the jellee dont bubble!"
"Next, you hav to add some watur. Beanie's jellee uzes Metric mezurmants, but luckee we hav a little glass that haz mileemeeters on it."
"Aftur you add watur, you hav to mix it in real good."
"Then you put it in the refreeguratur so it coolz."
"It waz very eazy and fun to mak! Thank you Beanie! Me and Jerry are going to hav it for dezzurt tonight!"
Oh you are a very good cook - your dezzurt looks wonderful - and you didn't make much of a mess.
ReplyDeleteAaannnnddd...??? How was it??? That looks quite interesting... but wasn't there supposed to be some honey in there too??
ReplyDeleteOh YUM YUM!!! Hope you had loads of fun wobbling it and eating it!!!!!
ReplyDelete@ JoAnn, Sandy & Beanie, It was BEARY delicious! Jerry ate a big helping of it, and now he is wobbling around the house and giggling, he says that the jelly has turned him into a wobbling bear. No honey Sandy, it was StrawBEARY flavored, yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh that sounds yummy! Jerry the Jelly-legged Bear... hmmm... I do hope that Ben got a bit of the jelly!
ReplyDeleteJust wondering if the end product taste any different than Jell-O? I find it interesting that it isn't powdery when it comes out of the package, As usual great job Chef Ben.
ReplyDelete@ Sandy & Buttons, It was delicious, and everyone got to taste it, but to be truthful Jerry had three little helpings.
ReplyDeleteLove the new header picture!
ReplyDelete@ Sanday, Thanks Sandy! That was a photo from last year (we think, SOME human companions tend to forget important details like that, and you know Jerry and Ben are, at this moment, giving someone a slightly annoying/slightly laughing look...).
