Everything and nothing is a nonsense phrase.

I have always treated kids with the respect due individuals
(mostly, according them adult rights and responsibilities in
miniature). Makes for a good rapport later on, especially
insofar as nobody has to change gears.

I suppose you could use a cheese slicer instead. And, while we're
at it, an old used toothbrush for the mushrooms (before you use it
to scrub the contacts on your car battery).

As is putting artificial vanilla into one's milk. But I'm not
going to pay a kajillion bucks for the privilege.

That looks like a simple and wholesome recipe, despite the price
of truffles being through the roof (when I bought some from Les
Ducs de Perigord at the Brive market, they were $250 a pound,
and now who knows). But not much more than wholesome: we could
do it no problem when I next see you, but you might as well just
open a can of Underwood chicken spread.

      Title: Death By Chocolate Ala Mr. Food
 Categories: Desserts, Chocolate
      Yield: 8 servings

      1 pk 19.8 oz fudge brownie mix           8    Chocolate-covered toffee
    1/2 c  Coffee liqueur                           -candy bars (like Heath or
      3 pk 3.5 oz each instant choco-               Skor)
           -late pudding (can use local       12 oz frozen whipped topping

  1. Preheat oven according to brownie package directions. Bake according to
  directions, and let cool. When cool, prick holes in the tops of the
  brownies with a fork and pour the coffee liqueur into them. Let stand.

  2. Prepare the chocolate pudding according to directions. If you wish you
  can use the low calorie pudding mix (it tastes the same).Break the candy
  bars up into very small pieces with a food processor or a kitchen hammer.

  3. Break up half the brownies and place in the bottom of a large trifle
  dish or glass bowl. Cover with half the pudding, half the candy and then
  half the whipped topping. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients.

  Typists note: To cut the calories, you can use low calorie whipped top-
  ping, low calorie brownie mix, low calorie pudding and omit candy.

  Very very good and very very filling.
