283rd New Thing - Baked a Cake at High Altitude

I wanted to bake a cake so I bought some Pillsbury Most Supreme Golden Butter Recipe Cake Mix. I read the directions and it recommended adding 3 tablespoons of flour and 2 tablespoons of water to the recipe if you live at High Altitude (about 3,500 feet). I live at 5,280 feet but vouched out of the special directions. I think my cake came out just fine with the regular directions. If I lived above 8,000 feet maybe then I would have followed it. After my 13"x9" cake was baked about 35 minutes, I let it cool then poured Jell-O Sugar Free Strawberry Flavor Gelatin over the cake (mix hot water, cold water, packet, in liquid form). I topped the cake with Fat Free Cool Whip and a few cut up strawberries. The cake was delicious without cooking it the High Altitude way!

47th New Thing - Watched Laverne & Shirley

I watched a classic sitcom today from the 70s, Laverne & Shirley . The show aired on ABC from January 26, 1976, to May 10, 1983 and starred Penny Marshall as Laverne De Fazio and Cindy Williams as Shirley Feeney. They were roommates who worked in a fictitious Milwaukee brewery called "Shotz Brewery". The show was a spin-off from Happy Days, as the two lead characters were originally introduced on that series as acquaintances of Fonzie. I watched Season 7, Episode 22, "Perfidy in Blue" originally aired on May 11, 1982. This episode started out with Shirley looking for Laverne's favorite blue purse that she borrowed and lost. Laverne asks where it is because she would like to use it on her date. Shirley lies and says she hasn't seen it. Shirley then watches TV and daydreams that she is in the TV show and married. Laverne is having an affair with Shirley's husband and Laverne tries to poison Shirley. Shirley pretends she is dead. Shirley wakes up and ...
