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.

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

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.

Request: Anyone sitting on a pile of 17"x22" ANSI "C" sized plotter paper/vellum they no longer need?

It would go to my #PenPlotter exhibit next month at #VCFEast. TIA!

You know, i was dubious for a long time, but i have to say I’m really impressed with my new steam deck!

Thoughts Before Bed:

No I did not eat a whole box of Samoas through the day. No not me. I know better than that.
