I took the day off just because I could. None of my co-workers called me, so I suppose the office didn't blow up without me. Jason also took the day off. We went shopping for used books, ate lunch on the patio of my favorite sandwich place, and took Ferguson to the park on our way home. My condolences go out to everyone who is covered in snow. It's sunny and 75 degrees here. I love it.

Because I had extra time to play around in the kitchen today, I made dessert. Jason's inordinately excited about the prospect of eating pudding.

Grasshopper Parfaits




1 1/2 cups finely chopped Oreo cookies
1/2 cup finely chopped chocolate-covered mint patties (Andes mints)
4 cups cold milk
2 pkg. chocolate instant pudding
Green food coloring
2 cups thawed Cool Whip whipped topping

Mix chopped cookies and mint patties in small bowl; set aside.
Pour milk into medium bowl. Add dry pudding mixes. Beat with wire whisk for two minutes. Let stand five minutes. Meanwhile, stir food coloring into whipped topping until well blended.
Layer pudding, whipped topping and cookie mixture evening in twelve parfait glasses or dessert glasses. Repeat layers. Refrigerate at least thirty minutes or until ready to serve.

I don't have twelve dessert glasses, so I just made the two and left the other ingredients in the separate bowls in the fridge for later use. I had to buy an entire pack of Oreos to make the damn things, so now I'm going to have to find a non-wasteful way of getting rid of the rest of the package without eating them myself. I do not need Oreo cookies. I do not need Oreo cookies.

I forget how good Oreos taste, until I eat one again. Then hell and damnation to anyone who stands between me and them.

Those parfaits look good enough to eat. ^_^

Oh, they look decadent and delicious! I'd gobble up two in a heartbeat!

Immediately.
