The Pampered Ladies Package Train

[Armygirl76]

hey we had been taking about a dessert lasagna at one point.......i finally found it. here it is........



INGREDIENTS

1 package regular Oreo cookies (Not Double Stuff) – about 36 cookies
6 Tablespoon butter, melted
1- 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons cold milk
1- 12 ounce tub Cool Whip, divided
2 – 3.9 ounce packages Chocolate Instant Pudding.
3 1/4 cups cold milk
1 and 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS

1. Begin by crushing 36 Oreo cookies. I used my food processor for this, but you could also place them in a large ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin. When the Oreos have turned into fine crumbs, you are done.
2. Transfer the Oreo crumbs to a large bowl. Stir in 6 tablespoons melted butter and use a fork to incorporate the butter into the cookie crumbs. When the butter is distributed, transfer the mixture to a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Press the crumbs into the bottom of the pan. Place the pan in the refrigerator while you work on the additional layers.
3. Mix the cream cheese with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add in 2 Tablespoons of milk, and sugar, and mix well. Stir in 1 and 1/4 cups Cool Whip. Spread this mixture over the crust.
4. In a bowl, combine chocolate instant pudding with 3 and 1/4 cups cold milk. Whisk for several minutes until the pudding starts to thicken. Use a spatula to spread the mixture over the previous cream cheese layer. Allow the dessert to rest for about 5 minutes so that the pudding can firm up further.
5. Spread the remaining Cool Whip over the top. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips evenly over the top. Place in the freezer for 1 hour, or the refrigerator for 4 hours before serving.

omgosh we have to make this in the corner so I can eat it lol!

I'd prefer randomness.

Jax doesnt really pay attention to the TV, except for elmos world and bert and ernie...and of course all the "do what the douads do - do what we do!", and roll play and all those (dowad..duad..do-odd...however you spell that)..sometimes the only way to get him to stop crying is to sing the rubber duckie song.

My daughter has Downs Syndrome and she is this amazing little person. However, she has liked Max and Ruby since she was 2 years old. She is now almost 15. There were only ever like three episodes of the stupid show ever made and she watches it twice a day.... Do the math.

Max and Ruby annoy me too!

i strongly DISLIKE Toopy & Binoo! Comparatively I like Dora, Go Diego Go & Team Umi Zoomi. I secretly (though I suppose now its not a secret) like Sesame Street. Hubby downloaded lots of classic 80s cartoons so DD also watches Inspector Gadget, ScoobyDoo, CareBears, My Pet Monster & Rainbow Brite (though DD is doesn't seem to want to watch this one, but mummy does.....) box of randomness!
Hubby downloaded some max & ruby for DD as we recently cancelled our cable tv & Netflix got rid of max & ruby, so we also watch the same 6 episodes is the same order all every day. I feel your pain. ((Hugs))

I ♥ Toopy and Binoo! We even saw the live show (free at the mall) LOL. My husband hates Diego and Dora because he says the shows encourage children to yell (SAY IT LOUDER!!)

They have quite a lot of kids shows. I just have the Canadian one because we use my dad Netflix account.

We cancelled our cable too, and we have Netflix for both the US and Canada and there isn't actually that much difference between them for children's content. And oddly enough for adults, it's the same number of shows more or less, but different ones.

For example, if I want to watch Parks and Recreation (love Amy Poehler) I log onto the US Netflix. If we want to watch Ironman (the movie, mmmm ... Robert Downy Jr. ....) we watch it on Canadian Netflix.

It's dumb.

But $8 is certainly WAY better than any cable package.

My kids love netflix but the biggest problem I have with it is they seem to randomly get rid of shows and of course it always seems to be the shows my kids love. Then we have to try to explain why it's not there anymore! My 5 year old was devastated when they got rid of Berenstain Bears! Thankfully (well for him anyway) they have it on Shaw on Demand. I don't know what I will do if Netflix gets rid of Diego!!

I've never noticed any shows disappearing. The only drawback to Netflix is that there are no Disney Jr. shows and my kids adore Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Sophia the First and Doc McStuffins. Have to download those!

We pay $100 for internet and basic cable at the moment...we only have one provider available here though so if we want TV that's our only option. I wouldn't mind getting Netflix but I don't think DH could live without Sportscentre and TSN.

Is that a regulation football?? LOL K I'm going back to the corner!

I think thats a rugby ball...

Buddy --if I was to buy you a top, what type of tops do you like?

I like ones with small prints on them lol

I need tank tops. Not spagetti straps or ribbed. Size med usually works well.

Do you need any couponing stuff? Pens / Stickers / Envelopes / Stamps / Letter Opener.....
All this is on my wishlist

Do you have any pets, if so do they need anything?
no

Do you drink hard liquor, if so what kind?
No often but if I do, its usually spiced rum

Can you stack? If you can't or can is there any item that you would want??
I can stack at London Drugs, but I don't usually choose to. Its too much work and makes my head hurt.

What is your MOST WANTED ITEM?
I have no idea! A maid? Pretty please?

Buddy do you like Aveeno/ Burt's Bee's products?
Sure

Movie Vouchers
Yes!

[Momto2Ks]

Ohhhh buddy....do you have a Cineplex near you? Any chance you'd like to go to the movies?

Yes we have both Cineplex and Empire nearby . Love going to the movie.

[shmeelady]

Haha.

DH does not allow Dora in the household. He thinks it teaches kids that it's funny to steal things (Swiper).
Has anyone watched that new Toopy and Binoo Vroom Vroom Zoom they aired on Treehouse?! What are your opinions, DH and I are very dissapointed. We typically let DS watch Toopy every night before bed as it calm's him down and he zones out on it. He was NOT into it either.

[hijinx25]

Back to annoying children's shows, LOL

My dad watched my DD when she was 14mo to 3 years while I was at work during the day. During that time, the watched some Treehouse, but one show he would NEVER allow her to watch was Caillou. He brain-washed her into thinking that he was the most whiney, disrespectful and annoying kid, LOL. To this very day ... and she's almost 6, when she heard the lyrics coming up on Treehouse, she would get up from what she was doing and either turn the tv off, or leave the room! LOL

My dad also has the same attitude about Curious George, but I disagree. Who couldn't love a monkey?

DD loves My Little Pony and that was my favourite show growing up (and She Ra!) so it's nice - we watch together.

DH LOVES Transformers. How much you ask? I'll show you. (Left and right side of his closet)

He calls it an investment in DS' future. I tell him he would have better off receiving stocks from Toys R Us. Oh well! LOL

They watch new episodes of Transformers together.

Big hugs to Bluz
I am lucky to have both my parents, and they are only 5 minutes away and we are very close.


Happy birthday to Shawshank

[shmeelady]

OMG...
I am completely jealous of that Transformer Closet.!!!

Question for my buddy! Would you like a themed package (everything geared for say. . . your garden as an example) or would you like a box of randomness?

Whatever you decide in and send will be amazing . I will leave it up to you!

[julesm14]

Ohhhh buddy....do you have a Cineplex near you? Any chance you'd like to go to the movies?

yes I do have one near by

And i put a black tank top on my wl, but I am easy going anything for summer

[hijinx25]

We were paying our company (only one where I live too) $160 a month for high speed internet, phone and cable. We got it down to $60 for phone and internet.

DH is an avid hockey and CFL fan. He got Game Centre and Centre Ice for and he can watch every single hockey game (except play offs) for $50 for the year.
I might have to send him to the pub to watch football once the season starts, LOL

Haha.

Good point about Swiper!

I haven't heard about the new Toopy and Binoo, will have to check it out!!

I think I am gonna say random, but really dont mind either way. My first package train so just cant wait to see what comes

[julesm14]

Okay I am just caught up
Weather is overcast here today but the rain is staying away and its pretty warm, all the snow is almost melted.
I went to Michaels, Walmart and the new Big Lots today and finished my buddies package!!!! Woohoo, got some great deals.
My bf is a warehouse manager in charge of shipping so I have it all bagged up and he said he will take it to work to ship it.

I have a question, do we wait til the ship date or do we ship as soon as the package is ready. I want to wait til next week for sure incase I see something else while I am out to add to spoil my buddy. Just wondering

Well got to find something to make for dinner.

I am invited to a pinterest party where you make your favorite pinterest dish and bring it for everyone to try. I just joined last week so I have only tried one thing!!! Any suggestions--must have recipes that you love????
I saw that chocolate lasagne on there that has been posted in the thread.

Thanks

I almost forgot I updated my post on page 86 with all the answers to questions for my buddy post #1286
