Reader Stephen Sapp says about today's true food funny, "This was sent
to me by a friend to whom I sent the story about the "toothpick in the
center of the cake."
My law school roommate (now a partner at a major Miami firm) and I
found a recipe for homemade "Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur." The
recipe called for a can of condensed milk, a certain kind of liquor, a
number of clean, uncracked eggs, cream, etc. While at school one
night, my roommate called and announced that he had made a batch of
Bailey's. I grabbed a few friends and brought them home with me to
have a nightcap. We poured glasses and it tasted good, but it had a
little bit of a crunchy texture that was weird. My roommate thought
"uncracked eggs" meant just that...and he had dropped 6 eggs, shell
and all, in the blender to make the blend. . Adding insult to injury
as only a college student can, there was no way we were going to throw
out perfectly good pretend-Bailey's (not enough discretionary income
back then); so we took a pair of my pantyhose (clean, of course) and
strained it!

Here is a fun recipe that the kids can make for Easter Dinner, and
they will have as much fun eating it as they had preparing it.
