I am somehow drawn to this silly recipe. It is so trashy -- two out
of the three ingredients are Jello and Cool Whip! But -- the layers
magically separate. And, you mold it in the same Cool Whip tub you
just dumped the Cool Whip out of! That's so efficient. The picture
in the Jello advertisement is awfully cute and artificially colorful.
Isn't there a cranberry flavored Jello? Maybe we could make this at
school as a measuring and reading directions activity.

Yes! Just cover the Cool Whip tub with its own top and off you go!
Talk about easy to transport.

In one of the _I Hate to Cook Books_, Peg Bracken says that it doesn't
really matter if no one likes your gelatin salad, it only matters that
you brought something.

I remember her books...very funny lady. Contained a number of surprisingly
good recipes, too.

I saw a cooking show on TV last week where the guy made jello shooters
with orange jello, and he molded the shooters in hollowed-out halves
of oranges. Then he cut them into wedges. They ended up looking just
like orange wedges.

Now I'm picturing the jello shooters done with the cool whip addition.
Man, that would be cool.
