Carribean Sunset Jell-O Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
1 large box orange jell-o, or two small boxes 2 cup boiling water 1 1/2 cup cold water 1/2 cup rum, * see note ----variation- 1 small box orange jell-o, or cherry jell-o 1 cup boiling water 1 cup cold water, (package directions)
Recipe
Preparation
* (I used "Cockspur" dark rum from Barbados, West Indies.)
Little "souffle cups" or Dixie Cups, Bathroom-size
Make up the Orange Jell-O, with the rum, in the usual way. (Dissolve the Jell-O thoroughly in the boiling water, etc.)
Distribute into individual servings.
Make up the Orange Jell-O without the rum, in the usual way.
Distribute into individual servings.
Let all of the Orange Jell-O set for about 1-2 hours. (It helps if you mark them specially, or put them in different cups, or on different trays or different refrigerators or something. I put an X on the non-alc. cups.)
Mix up the Cherry Jell-O. Let it cool, about half an hour or so.
Make sure the Orange Jell-O (both with and without rum) have set enough not to slosh when you wiggle them. Pull a tray out of the fridge (I assume you set the cups on trays!) and carefully pour a little bit of Cherry Jell-O on top of each serving. Just enough to cover them. Then put them back in the fridge, and do the next batch. (Do the rum ones first, then the nonalcoholic.)
If you do it just right, there should be enough cherry Jell-O to make a little red layer on top of each orange Jell-O cup. If you miscalculate, well, you'll probably have a bunch of regular ordinary orange Jell-O, and the kids will still be happy with them. (Plus they'll be easier to tell apart.)
Put it all back in the fridge, let 'em set, serve the next day. Voila, you have regular and unleaded (atomic and steam-powered?) versions, and (apart from the rum flavor) they'll be similar. Everyone will be happy. That's the theory, anyway...
Good luck! I'm taking them to a club meeting tonight, we'll see if it goes over well..

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
The problems associated with low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is truly safe for you?
Although there is considerable evidence that indicates that low carbohydrate diets may help elimate surplus fat, some of this strong evidence has resulted in many arguments between nutrition experts, and their safety has been challenged
Increased consumption of animal-based products may lead into high consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which a few authorities believe will increase the chance of heart conditions.
Carotenoid foods
(includes cilantro, turnip greens and winter squash)
These colorful healthy plants are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists be a key nutrient in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lung, esophagus and stomach. Most are low in calories, so you should add them to your weight loss regime.
