TWD - Floating Islands

I was really looking forward to making this week's Tuesdays with Dorie challenge - Floating Islands. I've never tried this technique before, and it sounded like an impressive dessert. Plus, custard. What's not to love?

However, as previously mentioned, the Mother of All Head Colds has taken up residence at our house. So in addition to having trouble staying vertical long enough to make a complicated dessert, it seemed rather pointless when no one in the building would have been able to taste it.

So instead, we've spent the weekend doing Nyquil jello shots and watching re-runs of Everybody Loves Raymond. Because we are party animals, and that's how we roll.

There are lots of other healthy TWD bloggers who have risen to the challenge, though, so you should go check them out - and leave nice comments for them! They worked hard. Make sure to visit Shari at Whisk: A Food Blog for this week's recipe.

Next week is Devil's Food White Out Cake, and I will be making it, even if they have to wheel me from the morgue to my kitchen. Hmph.
