This Week's Condiment: Whipped Cream

I was going to make clotted cream from scratch, but in my usual "I didn't read the recipe before I sat down to do it" it takes a full 24 hour to make it (12 hours of baking milk?!). I decided to go with Whipped Cream instead. Super simple to make, at least if you have a blender or really strong arms. I wonder what this will be used on?

# Homemade Whipped Cream
Sally's Baking Recipes
2.0 cups

1.0 cup cold heavy whipping cream
2.0 tbsp powdered sugar
0.5 tsp vanilla extract

1 - Chill your mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for thirty minutes.
2 - Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, about 3–4 minutes.

@retrosponge @pomegranate_stew - I used to record the output of the sound via an "Stereo Mix" option in the recording settings. I haven't done it in a while, and I remember the option being hard to find/enable as time went on.

Whee. The dead tree storage is complete, and the faulty (bent) legs have been replaced.

The familiar Klingon bloodwine goblet, first seen in #StarTrekTNG's "A Matter of Honor"↖️ and then reappearing in "Reunion"↙️ was originally purchased or created for Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments"➡️. It was finally and totally ready for its close-up on TNG! :-)

Clara Bow is thought to be the original “It” Girl because she starred in the 1927 film “It.” Her name is gaining traction today for a different film in which she acted: “The Pill Pounder,” a 20-minute silent film that was presumed lost. But it was recently discovered at an auction in Omaha, Neb. Read more at IndieWire. flip.it/AHMN6u

A random curio from my hoard...

Snowflake is probably most compact Win32 application
I ever wrote. It is only 12 kbytes in size. Consider
it as my little programming joke.

Snowflake is a simple webpage backgrounds creation tool.
It makes a nice graph which you could easily paste to
your favorite graphics editor using Windows clipboard.
