same way I make pasta salad except bell peppers Yuck.
If you add 2 cups of milk AND a can does it still firm up?

I didn’t add peppers. I actually used three cups of milk because I followed the box instructions instead of the recipe. I couldn’t focus. I thought I’d ruined it, but it turned out fine. I have enough of everything to make a second one.

Don't look! As my grandfather was fond of saying:
"Lo estómago no tiene ojos"

I've said it so many times to my girls all I have to do when they say they don't like the looks of some food is: "And???". They will repeat the Spanish saying with a bit of eye roll.

Besides, I don't expect the bananas would turn black if they are all mixed into the pudding would they?

yes they still turn black which tells me one of 2 things. You either never made it before or you ate it all the dame day too !

You used the bigger box. They call for the small box that only normally takes 2 cups of milk.

I guess its hard for the younger gen. and social butterfly's to sit home. Especially after being used to camp and all the activity. I get it. I really do. If you dont get out you will go nuts. I used to be young. Its way easier on the older peeps to actually enjoy this stuck at home stuff but its not safe. Im not safe getting the mail either. Just taking all the precautions you can is the best you can do.

Yeah I find that is always the case. TRY not to hurry, get in trouble because I hurried.

I usually don't hurry but I spent a lot of time with the neighbors that I hadn't planned on.

I don’t mind sitting at home. We would’ve been ok, but I would’ve cried my eyes out the whole weekend. I usually get upset at Easter because it feel frivolous to celebrate like when I was a kid, new outfits for everyone, giant baskets, and the big egg hunt and dinner. I always had a new hat, gloves, dress, shoes, and frilly socks. Even after dad banished mythical/pagan traditions we still had a giant basket full of goodies. DH doesn’t like bringing home garbage toys that break within hours, or tons of candy, and he’s right. But I still grieve it. I may still grieve it tomorrow. Hard to say.

I definitely don’t want to put anyone in danger. My mom is also high-risk, and I’m super worried about her getting it. My grocery run yesterday was for essentials, plus Easter food. I got in and got out. I made one stop and went home and wiped everything down as I put it away.

I had sangria and it went straight to my head. I was sick for hours and still don’t feel great. I guess I’m a bit in my feels.
