It's funny. We'll go weeks without having any cream in the refrigerator and not noticing its absence. And then the MiL brings home a quart of heavy cream (that's right, I said a quart--no point in doing anything halfway) and all of the sudden it's in everything.
So far: two large batches of the Nourishment; a batch of James Beard's recipe for Cream Biscuits (using a cup of heavy cream in place of butter--YUM); hot cocoa with whipped cream; and lots and lots of black tea with sugar and cream.
I might just start drinking it straight from the carton next, to save on all this inconvenient cooking.
Be prepared for Cubby to put on some weight fast; he'll be drinking cream!
ReplyDeleteHar , har, har . You CAN'T tell us you haven't ALREADY had it straight from the carton. Creammmmmm.

You can call it calcium and/or supplemental baby nutrition. We'll all believe you. :)
ReplyDeleteJust getting caught up with all the excitement. Congratulations! He's a thing of beauty (as is a quart of heavy cream).
ReplyDeleteHave heaps and heaps of fun. I'm quite sure you will.
I went through a phase in college where I started putting heavy cream on my breakfast cereal. Decadent. And highly fat-inducing.
ReplyDeleteI've given it up in my quest to lose 20 lbs, but I still think it's God's nectar. It makes anything better.
I will admit to drinking heavy cream from the container straight from the fridge.
ReplyDeleteMy shame is significant, but that does not stop me. If it's in the house, all bets are off.
