Possibly a full cup of sugar in every bite!
Are you a Jell-O mom?
I'm really not. I don't know why. I suppose because I don't love the stuff, myself.
But The Grand Lunar, he's a Jell-O Man. He likes the artificially colored, artificially fruitful wiggly blobs. And when he bought some Jell-O for the kids a while back they were very excited and pleased with his choice.
And so I thought ... "Why not? I could do Jell-O now and then."
Only.
I have to do it MY way.
Of course.
And of course MY way would take all day.
"All day? For Jell-O? What could you possibly mean, Kim?"
Simply this:



Six layers of jiggly rainbow bliss.
Because my favorite color still is "rainbow".
Proper enjoyment for the under 3 crowd included obligatory squarshing.

Recipe:
8 serving boxes of strawberry (cherry also acceptable), orange, lemon, lime, blue raspberry, and grape Jell-O. Use the Jiggler recipe, halved. Make one layer at a time, poring layers successively into pan in proper rainbow order, allowing at least 45-60 minutes between layers. Requires patience. And at least 4.5 hours, I did it in 6. And some ability to remember to make the next layer. A timer works well. Also requires space in the fridge.
