Chocolate Eclair Dessert

2 3 oz packages French Vanilla Pudding (or whatever suits your fancy - I like banana)

3 cups milk

Beat according to directions on the box, but not too much.

Add 8 oz Cool Whip (fat or skinny)

Line bottom of 9 x 13" pan with however many whole graham crackers as it takes.

Pour in ½ the pudding. Add another layer of crackers and add the other ½ of the pudding. Then add one more layer of crackers.

Topping: best if you double it!

Melt…in the microwave

3 Tablespoons oleo/margarine (I don't know what difference butter might make...remember, I don't cook.)

3 Tablespoons milk

3 level Tablespoons cocoa

1 Tablespoon oil

Add 1 ½ cups powdered sugar

2 Tablespoons cornstarch

A drop, or more, of vanilla (or orange or cherry or ???)

Beat until smooth and spread over the pudding and crackers

Chill over night

Today's news from the It's a Small World, Six Degrees of Separation Dept comes an update on last night's car accident that I heard outside just around bedtime. The car that was hit was occupided by my daughter's best friend's sister and her boyfriend. That young lady was the one that who they were telling not to move until the ambulance showed up with the board and brace. The update is that even though she was pretty banged up, she's otherwise okay. Guess those prayers last night did their job.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Hey, Big Guy..
I read about a pork roast..
Um..
Kalua?
Made with Ti leaves, I think the roast was wrapped in that to cook?
Can you help me remember this recipe?

[AZamericonnie]

I do have to say....thanks to Ma I make the crustless quiche frequently.

I have tried countless combinations of meats, veggies & cheeses.

Sausage, chorizo, linguisa & canadian bacon.

The whole gambit of veggies.

I made two one evening last week. One of them I sliced roma tomato’s on top & sprinkled fresh parm. Gorgeous & delish!
