Stop once the vanilla is incorporated.<br />It should be creamy and dense like ice cream.<br />Add milk, 1tsp at a time, if frosting does not have a spreadable consistency.Tippiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03690308663458318115noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348471071793077656.post-24868433129681437222010-08-01T11:27:00.001-07:002010-08-01T11:27:30.967-07:00Quote Of The DayDance like your photo's not tagged, love like you've never been unfriended, tweet like nobody's following.<br /><br />~ UnknownTippiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03690308663458318115noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348471071793077656.post-24812558544535305492010-07-24T00:55:00.000-07:002010-07-24T00:56:14.267-07:00Go Rachel!<object width="420" height="245" id="msnbc8967d2" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" /><param name="FlashVars" value="launch=38372844^454^264300&width=420&height=245" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="wmode" value="opaque" /><embed name="msnbc8967d2" src="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" width="420" height="245" FlashVars="launch=38372844^454^264300&width=420&height=245" allowscriptaccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="opaque" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed></object><p style="font-size:11px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #999; margin-top: 5px; background: transparent; text-align: center; width: 420px;">Visit msnbc.com for <a style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com">breaking news</a>, <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032507" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;">world news</a>, and <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032072" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;">news about the economy</a></p>Tippiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03690308663458318115noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348471071793077656.post-86343804960083150082010-07-04T23:47:00.000-07:002010-07-04T23:56:30.021-07:00Banana Bread (Vegan)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgptU_bU63XIJAuPggScA4woxxf3XJLhJoTq6CwAci_O9hqcSTKUx3wXcHMR9O9rPpYlvDP47fcUJxqNQ2EYzaGJxk7dxe2L_bRKcZOqgapv8Ed-kLZ6B-1gwMviGkTmzpjsGpWQhF_oAA/s1600/banana_bread.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 216px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgptU_bU63XIJAuPggScA4woxxf3XJLhJoTq6CwAci_O9hqcSTKUx3wXcHMR9O9rPpYlvDP47fcUJxqNQ2EYzaGJxk7dxe2L_bRKcZOqgapv8Ed-kLZ6B-1gwMviGkTmzpjsGpWQhF_oAA/s400/banana_bread.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490310398628251074" /></a><br /><br />I *love* banana bread!<br /><br />The other day I saw <A HREF="http://www.thekindlife.com/post/katie-bs-banana-breads">this</A> unique banana bread recipe online and decided I should give it a try.

Or Is God Violent?"<br /> <br /><br />Nearly all religions seem hell-bent on inspiring people to kill each other... So we ask: Why does God seem so violent and genocidal in many Bible passages? Does God sanction elitism, prejudice, violence, or even genocide? Is God incurably violent and is faith capable of becoming a stronger force for peace and reconciliation than it has been for violence in the past?<br /><br /><br />~ Brian McLaren, A New Kind of ChristianityTippiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03690308663458318115noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348471071793077656.post-33911062565070939782010-07-01T07:17:00.001-07:002010-07-05T01:03:28.331-07:00Happy Canada Day!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJxyJ0UewqFVooUGzLuolaFC4yprux5QCgaI3AAVFvtsELPr67b1PS8Dy71B_eL6eqajJGYisWFEbEMQF6iHlEEjXu54hi_SJrT598LmuCpjikipwX7uDBLSbyk1s7AzNGkHdPw4tWnU/s1600/Photo+on+2010-06-30+at+21.31.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJxyJ0UewqFVooUGzLuolaFC4yprux5QCgaI3AAVFvtsELPr67b1PS8Dy71B_eL6eqajJGYisWFEbEMQF6iHlEEjXu54hi_SJrT598LmuCpjikipwX7uDBLSbyk1s7AzNGkHdPw4tWnU/s400/Photo+on+2010-06-30+at+21.31.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488941899136035442" /></a><br /><br />... and nothing says Canada Day like a little Stompin' Tom!<br /><br /><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wGHMw_67fOk&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wGHMw_67fOk&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>Tippiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03690308663458318115noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348471071793077656.post-58865516416053752272010-06-30T23:08:00.000-07:002010-07-01T21:41:10.256-07:00Neighbourhood Trees Get A Haircut!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiX0QMomY3j5QQ9oiPAhyphenhyphenH-_oZNrHvBDJ5x0qLM3OAzMMizwANuMLs8bKLLdoS73Gq34uXSEP2tbiDoNyFcLpyd0seM5Fxt8EqbHu4J2i7Jfj1dFqebsmf4AtRdD9WZcXs3V6CHpE1ApV4/s1600/guy_in_Tree_3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiX0QMomY3j5QQ9oiPAhyphenhyphenH-_oZNrHvBDJ5x0qLM3OAzMMizwANuMLs8bKLLdoS73Gq34uXSEP2tbiDoNyFcLpyd0seM5Fxt8EqbHu4J2i7Jfj1dFqebsmf4AtRdD9WZcXs3V6CHpE1ApV4/s400/guy_in_Tree_3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488815910622999634" /></a><br /><br />As usual I was off to the vet this morning with The Pickster.
