Anticipation
This is exciting! I have wanted an orange ginger lily for as long as I can remember. I tried growing it in Alabama and never got a bloom. I do have a white ginger ( Hedychium spicatum ) that has had a few blooms. A few years ago, someone told me that 'Tara' is the only one that will reliably bloom here. I don't know if that it true but I finally got one this year (thank you Dancing Oaks!). Planted in April next to our South foundation and given ample water, I can hardly believe it, but it looks like a bloom is imminent - in its first year! I'm holding my breath...

Yum! I was a huge fan of Cool Whip as a kid -- could devour it ON ice cream or INSTEAD OF ice cream ;-)
ReplyDeleteI still remember how my mom made me fresh whipped cream one time as a treat and I was like, "Um...this is good, but I think I prefer Cool Whip."
I wish I could take that back and at least have pretended to spare her feelings and show my appreciation for the work that went into making that whipped cream.
I like to think my palate has become a *little* more sophisticated since then and I've been thinking about whipping up some real cream someday soon (instead of using Readiwhip), but I still have a soft spot for Cool Whip... :P
I have made this many times and love it! Easy as can be!
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy! Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteI printed this out. Sounds like the perfect dessert for 100 degree heat! Thanks!
