Had the leftover spaghettinni from yesterday and some of the leftover pesto. There's still a fair bit of pesto left. It was pretty good.
I was thinking about making a chocolate mousse for dessert, but we are almost out of sugar. So, I made Brandy Alexanders for dessert. They were good, but I want to see if I can make them better. Aw shucks, gotta make some more. :ermm: :LOL: :yum:

Second round of brandy Alexanders were better: more creme de cacao, less brandy (same total amount of booze) and 1/2 the amount of cream. Also switched from 15% cream to 40% cream. That was really good. Next, I will see if I can find one of those premium chocolate liqueurs.

Try swapping out the cream for some premium vanilla or chocolate ice cream, then buzz it in the blender! :yum:

That sounds like a really good idea. I would probably whisk it rather than use a blender - less clean up. ;)

It does sound good!

I put a couple drops of dish deterg in my blender, add water, buzz, rinse, and Presto! Clean blender!

Yeah, but putting the whisk in the dishwasher is even easier and I don't have to put it on the dish rack to dry. I pretty much have creative laziness down to a science. :LOL:

Creative laziness, I like that! Though it does sound like a lot of work.....
