Hi Kaylin,

Thanks, as always for all you do to keep your wonderful E-zine going. I feel like I've been
asking for a lot lately, but I know that if anyone can help me with this one, it's your circle
of readers. I work as a nurse in an Alzheimer's unit, where our goal is to keep our
residents as functional as possible for as long as possible, in a safe, secure, family-style
environment. Every afternoon, our CNA's work with some of our ladies to prepare a snack.
Most of our residents really enjoy cookies and coffee, but due to the disease process,
they lack the attention span and focus to follow a traditional cookie recipe from start to
finish, and ready-to-bake cookies or prepared mixes can get awfully expensive when
you're making enough for almost 60 people every day. Yes, they could just open a pack
of Oreos, but scent is a strong memory trigger, and having something baking in the oven
can do wonderful things sometimes. I happened to mention an old recipe to the boss the
other day, I just used to call them "Cake Mix Cookies". The were very simple and
inexpensive, just 3 ingredients if I remember right -- a box of layer cake mix, eggs and oil.
The cookies are big, poofy, and delicious with or without a simple powdered sugar glaze.
They take less than 5 minutes from mix to oven, and the boss thought they'd be perfect
for our residents. Soooooooooo, I came home and wouldn't you know, I can't find the
recipe :( ( I'm pretty sure that it's somewhere in my missing red book, which I am still
certain my son has. I keep snooping around his house when I visit but haven't had any
luck. One of these days, though...) Does this recipe sound familiar to anyone? Thanks
again for a wonderful list!

Hi Kaylin,

This site is the greatest! I have seen many food sites, but yours has to be the best. I
would love to have a recipe for homemade ice cream. My Mother used to make one that
had eggs, cream, & other ingredients and she cooked the mixture before putting it in the
freezer. I would really appreciate it if any of your readers had this recipe. I know it's an old
recipe. Thanks for all your help and good recipes. God Bless you.

Pat

Kaylin,

to Deb from Minnesota- Home made flexible gel packs are simple to make using liquid
dish soap! Seal in a heavy plastic zip baggie, cover seal with tape then use for cold or
warm therapy. To make a simple cover for use, stitch the around 3 sides of two
washcloths, and slip the baggie in.

Sue wanted recipes for no-bake cookies. I've never been a fan for the unbaked cookies for
which I have recipes. But a couple of years ago, I was entertained by a gas grill
distributor demo. My BEST summer trick is to bake my cookies on my covered gas grill.
You can be as lazy as you want--use chocolate chip cookie dough from the dairy case or
use your own homemade recipes. I love to do this when we are grilling a meal--there is
built up heat and there is nothing as delicious as a freshly baked cookie! Hope this helps!

This recipe is for Sherry or anyone else who is looking for delicious, easy recipes which
can be easily doubled or tripled for graduations, showers, etc. The combinations of Jell-O
and fruit can be changed to suit your tastes (just make sure you use fruit packed in juice,
not syrup) and converts perfectly when you use low fat cottage cheese, lite cool whip, and
sugar free Jell-O. I gave this recipe to my mother last summer and she just told me she
was asked to make it for a baby shower which will be her 20th batch of this delicious
"salad". I have some other fruit salad recipes which use yogurt as a base and one with a
pasta base. If interested, please e-mail me with Fruit Salads in the subject line and I will
forward them to you.

Cottage Cheese Salad

1 *20 oz. can crushed pineapple, UNDRAINED
1 *large (or two small) boxes raspberry gelatin, DRY (regular or sugar free)
1 32 oz. container cottage cheese (regular or low fat)
1 12 oz. container whipped topping, THAWED (regular or lite)

Mix UNDRAINED pineapple, DRY gelatin and cottage cheese together. Fold in whipped
topping. *Any flavor combination can be used. It is delicious with mandarin oranges and
orange Jell-O. Firmer fruits add more texture to the salad but it is delicious either way.

Re: Party Ideas

Sherry,

Try going Italian - lasagna, salad and garlic bread, serve some vegetarian, some with
meat, some with sausage & put a label on them. Or serve quiche made with different
fillings - mushrooms and ham, mushrooms and onions and peppers, sausage and onion,
or whatever fillings you like. You can buy quiche or use premade pie shells, saute all
veggies and meats, run milk, eggs and chunked cheese through the blender. Put pie
shells on cookie sheets, put in fillings, pour in egg, cheese & milk mixture and sprinkle
with nutmeg. Bake 35 to 45 minutes in a 350 degree oven until center is set. They can be
served hot or cold. Cut in 8 wedges per pie. Serve with salad and soft bread sticks.
