whipping cream

Originally written on 8 February 2008, but the internet was down...

Last Saturday was Mom’s birthday. In discussing birthday presents this year, us kids decided that, although Mom does very little cooking anymore, she does a lot of serving of people. So we had a bit of fun rounding up some particularly fun serving items: a 20 inch pepper grinder, a whipped creamer, and a fresh parmesan cheese grater.

The whipped creamer is of particular note as it has been a source of much fun and laughter this week. You fill it with heavy cream and powdered sugar, attach the little canister of condensed air, shake three times, and voila, whipped cream. Only thing is that if you pull the trigger too fast, it can get a little violent, including shooting through a pancake.

Hi Pam!

Your blog photos are gorgeous!
Matt sent me the link to your blog for distraction while at work. I'm not sure why, seeing as my desk and office chair in Decatur, GA are very similar to jaunty safaris in another hemisphere ;)
Hope your mom had a lovely birthday (who couldn't with a whipped creamer)!
