While the crust is baking, make the filling.
1 package cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Whip together and then fold in 1 contained of Cool Whip
Once the cookie is completely cooled, spread the filling on top. I usually use about 1/2 of the filling I just made, and use the rest for fruit dip.
Slice strawberries in 1/2 and cover the filling.
Cover the whole thing with Marie's Strawberry Glaze.
Keep refrigerated until ready to eat.

That does sound good, and similar to the fruit pizza. Thanks!

Oh man. I so want to go home and make Strawberry pizza now!

Francine (my assistant) just called--we still don't know anything definitive. The surgeon was a little more neutral about whether the mass (which is on an ovary) is cancer or not--her regular doc was line "c" word all the way even before the MRI. The surgery is now scheduled for Friday.

Holy moly, that sounds gooood right now. I just read it to my Mom. She's Miss Cook/Bake/everything else in the kitchen lady.

Finally caught up! And it only took me a little over an hour! Of course - I was distracted by kids quite often.

Nothing exciting going on around here. Looking forward to this weekend when my dh and I are going to Tahoe alone!
And then on the 29th the whole family heads to DL!

Cheryl, hopefully everything goes well for Francine. The surgeon would likely be a little more cautious before saying anything because truthfully, they will not know for sure what it is until they have a tissue biopsy or some sort of sample to verify. I'm glad her surgery is scheduled so soon for her - less time to stress.

You Divas are killing me with your baking - makes me look bad (I guess I shouldn't worry - DH and DS will never see it )

But but . . . Theresa--this recipe isn't really "baking"--come on, buying sugar cookie dough and pressing it in a pan--you can do that! Make some pudding from a box and mix in the cool whip-slice up some berries and pour glaze over it (or not in my case--too sweet). Done! JUST DO IT!!!!

You can do it. The recipe doesnn't look that difficult. If you want to impress and not hassle to much I have the world's super easiest cobbler recipe. Let me know.


Cheryl - Your asst will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Stacerita: Kinda. But I can see why they wouldn't alert staff that they are selling. Especially if they are told that the staff would be kept. Most practices would would without the owner, but not the staff. They staff is what people keep coming back too. And if they are told ahead of time, they might quit and leave the practice hanging, which could hurt the sale and the others' jobs. Its not uncommon to not tell staff.

That makes sense ~ thank you!

Me either. That would make a cute tag by the way.

Now that's a great idea! Put the whole thing under my DIS name?
Thanks!!

toocherie: My assistant is meeting with an OB/GYN oncologist right now. She was scheduled for a hysterectomy tomorrow--and during her pre-op last week they did an ultrasound and found a mass above her uterus. She tried to have an MRI on Friday, but was so claustropohbic she couldn't do it. She did an "open" MRI today, but even that took five hours because she had to stop and start. She had an appointment with the specialist at 2 p.m. to get the results--surgery has been postponed in the meantime.

Oh, how scary. Will for sure hold her near in prayer.

DizNee Luver:Hi Ladies,
I'm really outta the loop right now, I'm trying to do a VERY HARD THING......quitting smoking. I tried to go cold turkey & became very unfunctionable. Gonna have to try something different I guess.

Oh my! Good for you!!

My dad quit cold turkey after 35 yrs and was a non smoker for 25 years. I know it's not easy, but now there are things out there that can help..hope you find something that works.

What a wonderful gift you are giving your children!

MMMMMM cobbler....I, too, have a super easy cobbler recipe that is delish! If I lived closer I would bring it to the Meet and Greet...but with how far away I live it is a no go. Apple Maggot Quarintine Area Do not transport homegrown fruit...Believe it or not my fifth grade teacher made that into a song that we had to sing in a round while sitting around a campfire. Scary, I know!

Get out that recipe Christine!

[lulubelle]

I want to make a good cobbler. Apple, please. I'll pass on the maggots, Sarah!

Cheryl, I so hope Francine is ok. Sending lots of pixie dust her way.

Laurie, same to you as quitting smoking is VERY HARD. My DH tried at least 4 or 5 times over the past 10 years and we are hoping he is successful this time. He's been smoke free for about a year, but man, does he groove on his nicotine gum. Can't leave home without it!
