Hope you have a speedy recovery, Anna. Don't worry about video postings etc. Take time to feel completely well and take care of your health first. We'll be here for you when you are good and ready.
Yes! We'll be here when you get back. Just take care of you! I feel your pain - literally. I also tore my labram about 3 years ago and went for surgery to repair it but my ortho saw osteoarthritis in the X-rays and MRI (I was in my late 40s). So we ditched the repair and went straight to total hip replacement since I would likely need that at some point in the future anyway. They remove the labram altogether for hip replacement, so it takes care of both problems and recovery is supposedly much easier than labram repair. Hopefully your doctor looked as well (I am sure he/she did). Either way, I hope you have a speedy recovery!
Haha - I actually came here to post about the chicken curry recipe but got distracted by the hip comments. :-). Thank you so much for posting! I made it today for lunch since I had all the ingredients handy. So good - reminds me of something I had in the Dominican Republic about 20 years ago and was never able to quite recreate. I think because I assumed it was a Caribbean recipe and made with coconut milk, none of the recipes I tried were even close. This the closest recipe I have found! I did add a pinch of both garlic and ginger pastes, mainly because I had those tubes in the fridge already. So delicious.
This is one of those channels where I feel as if I'm able to time-travel back to a simpler-time, especially the times I spent helping my mother in the kitchen. Here's to all those who can't be with us for the Memorial Day Weekend . . . Cheers !!!
If you prepare dream whip with the eggnog that’s available around the holidays, or even with chocolate milk, it makes a really decadent topping or frosting, or a filling for cream puffs.
Here's to a quick recovery! If you are making videos ahead what about some meal prep videos for someone who is having surgery/baby/caring for another, etc? Or alternately some quick dinners with 15 minutes or less prep and then whatever bake time? And if you take a break, no problem. We'll be thumbing through our recipe books or going back and watching content we missed.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery! My best friend's mother would use Dream Whip to make a delicious root beer float cake. It was IBC root beer, a white cake mix, and Dream Whip. The root beer replaced the water or milk called for in the cake and Dream Whip. After baking and cooling; the cake was chilled in the refrigerator. Then the Dream Whip made with root beer was used to frost the cake. Served cold from the refrigerator it was a delicious summertime treat.
I'm sorry you have to have surgery! Also sorry that you had to justify that decision on camera, just to ward off comments from people that have no business judging what you know is best for you. Take care of yourself. We will be here when you heal and feel like filming again. I love your channel!
Girl, no apology necessary when you are taking care of yourself! Wishing you a speedy recovery and hope surgery corrects and heals the pain. Take the time you need, we will wait patiently.j That breakfast sandwich was a bit of a mind blow for me using an actual bun…I’ll have a few after the long weekend and now have an easy use for them.
I know these videos are a lot of work for you, but they are some of my favorites. I love this one! So sorry you’ve been struggling with hip pain. I hope you have a quick recovery. Please don’t stress about posting videos. We will be here when you return!
When I had foot surgery I didn’t have the upper body strength for crutches so I rented a knee scooter with a front basket, which gave me my freedom back. Also don’t forget a small shower chair and hand held shower hose. These are things you don’t think about until you need them.
I love how cheery mid-century design was. I collect Kate Spade stuff the way you collect cookbooks, and it's because of the happy designs. I do wonder about those toast caddies like the ones in that cookbook, though. I've always thought they were cute, but it seems like the toast would dry out.
My husband just had a hip replacement on Wednesday. Don’t know the difference in the surgeries, but we were home by dinner. They had him up and walking within a couple of hours. He had to do steps, walk X# of feet and get in and out of a car before they released him. Good luck and have a speedy recovery.
This dish is really perfect for your subscribers in Florida. We grow loads of tomatoes and strawberries, so I'm really loving that simple lunch recipe! Native Floridians love tomato sandwiches for lunch. Nothing better! Especially if that tomato was recently plucked off the tomato plant in the backyard!
I admit that I prefer the older cook books for the original recipes. They use different methods and spices to flavor things. Sometimes you have a craving for something different and the older books come is really handy as well. The Dream Whip is great and not quite as sweet as cool whip for topping pies and cakes. Yes, I do use it as well. Have a great day
Ouch. I've had a torn labrum. Prayers for a speedy recovery. I have a genetic disorder that affects my collagen, things don't stay in place. I tore mine walking across the living room 😂
I have a Good Housekeeping Cakes recipe book, printed here in Australia somewhere in the early 50s, I think, and I can't get over how similar the style is! I used to love looking at all the pictures when I was young and beg my mum to make such lovely things. The colour pictures were wonderful. I still have the book. Maybe its time to embark on my own little vintage journey of discovery?!
Best wishes on your surgery. Dream whip is what we used before Cool Whip came on the market. As you can tell, the advantage was the shelf-stable aspect . I specifically remember adding Dream Whip to Jello recipes. Decades ago I went back to real whipping cream. But, have you seen the price jump lately? We just bought a quart of heavy whipping cream for $5.89 the other day. Wow! Might have to seek out Dream Whip again.
Okay so I came at full speed back to this video! I just watched a Beryl Shereshewski video, “how people cook tomatoes around the world” and she did an Egyptian stuffed tomato! I instantly thought of this video and how cool it is that cultures physically so far apart love a tomato stuffed with rice and other amazing things!
Heck, yeah I remember Cool Whip! My mom used it all the time. Probably because we had six kids and heavy cream would’ve been a lot of money with the family of eight. I also love stuffed tomatoes, and you can stuff them with so many great things. a great lunch is tuna salad in, the tomato but not cooked.
wishing you well during your surgery and recovery. You must be exhausted from making shows ahead of time Thank you so much for doing that. enjoy your show so much I've learned so much about just general cooking knowledge. Even though I'm old I can still learn to cook new ways.
I bought Dream Whip during early pandemic when things were hard to come by. I remember my grandma making it when I was a kid. I remember liking it. My tastes have changed...it just tastes like chemicals to me now. It made me really sad and nostalgic.
So sorry about your hip pain!! I hope the surgery and recovery go super smoothly for you. I loved seeing these late 1950s meals. I especially enjoy a stuffed tomato. I might just have to make some soon -- the last time I saw one on a restaurant menu it included an ingredient I'm allergic to, so I missed out!
My mom always used dream whip because it was cheap and we didn't have a grocery nearby. I honestly don't remember what it tastes like. She would use it for jello pudding pies.
@cooking_the_books Hi Anna 😊🍓 Such a cute plate with the strawberries. Dream Whip was a staple at our house when I was growing up. It came on the market the year I was born. 😀 My mom loved cold desserts, pies and cobblers so we used plenty, and probably around late 1960's or around 1970, she added Cool Whip which I think tasted a lot better years ago. These recipes look wonderful! So does that cookbook. It was published 5 years after my parents were married. I'll have to search for it. She probably didn't have a copy, but the recipes sound like things she would make. The little cookbooks look very interesting. I wish you all the best with your hip surgery and recovery. 🙏🏻🌷🌷🌷🤗 Thank you for another great Sunday video!
My grandmother used to use that Dream Whip in the 80s for her deserts. It was quick and easy and sweet. And how adorable are the sketches in this cookbook. I also so so wish you well with your hip surgery. My mother had hip surgery and it took a few weeks for her to recover, but I wish you so much luck. Happy healing!
OMG! That's crazy girl! I JUST had arthroscopic labral repair on left hip in March! I'm just wrapping up physical therapy and am about to embark on a two week trip to Colombia, so wish me luck! I've been working hard to be able to just make it through an airport in a hurry! My advice to you, do NOT overdo things if you think "Oh it doesn't hurt" - I was surprised myself in my experience because I had three anchors put in and serious tears from having deformities in the socket and femoral head (both sides too, so right side is coming next year!) the pain was not so bad, but the days when I got overconfident with PT exercises and would dearly pay for it the next day. So listen to your PT, go to all your sesions, the healing is super important, and this is coming from a similarly shaped fellow lady whose hips have been long suffering (and the injuries kept me from doing the things I loved, so I gained weight and was out of shape). Take good care of yourself! Pamper yourself! Get some silly lego or jewelry making kits or something fun to do with your hands when you are stuck in bed the first couple of weeks. Oh, I got a toilet chair for that first couple of weeks, and had to wear a nightgown with ahem, well I ditched the underwear because those first couple of weeks on crutches and not putting any weight on the affected leg can be brutal when trying to pee! The raised bars on the toilet chair were a godsend, and skipping underwear for that first week made the whole process a lot easier. And my partner was amazing, helping me on and off that first week or so. I hope your partner can help you at home so you heal up with more ease. Ok, I was just surprised to hear your update since I haven't run into ANYone else lately who is having or had a labral repair!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!
Yes, I still use Dream Whip! I make the Dream Pie recipe on the box for grandkids. They love them just as much as I did as a kid. They also like making the pies! Wishing you all the best with your surgery! I've been watching your videos for a long time, but hadn't commented. We'll be here when your feeling up to posting again! Don't push yourself! ❤
@@cooking_the_books Yes exactly, Ralph or others to help, but a massive undertaking. Did you notice his custom made counter top, which can be slotted - in or removed depending on the width of the stove x
Anna! DREAM WHIP! What memories that brings back! My neighbor in the early 70’s used to put a packet in her cakes..right before everyone started putting pudding mix in. Her cakes were Devine..in texture and moisture! Now I have to dig out my box of old recipes and make a cake! Love ya, Girl! Good luck with your surgery! We’ll be here waiting for you! ❤🐾
Extra prayers for your upcoming surgery. Thank you for taking care of yourself, too often we tend to ignore our own needs when we take care of others. Even when it's making funny, delightful and visually delicious recipes for a few thousand strangers. xoxox 🙂💜
It seems like many dessert recipes from the past used Dream Whip as an ingredient, now that it’s on your radar you might see some recipes to help use it up. Different joint, but my sister had shoulder labrum surgery after trying PT and injections and she’s glad she made the decision to have it. Not only is her pain relieved, she feels free from having to modify her day to day activities to prevent increased shoulder pain. She said she sleeps better now with not having to accommodate certain positions to avoid pain. So I wish you a quick and complication free recovery. 😊
I like to stuff tomatoes with tuna salad. I do remember dream whip, I don't use it anymore but I remember it being decent. I hope your surgery helps, pain is rough. Take all the time you need to heal. I made chicken curry for supper but it wasn't like yours.
Yummy I love tomatoes I’m 62 I was a only child sometimes my mom would make a pot of rice and add a can of tomatoes yummy the one day she would make a pot of cream of chicken and add wide egg noodles that tomato 🍅 reminds me of my moms old dish going to make it this week thants and today is Monday and it pouring rain out side it’s Ga
I hadn't thought about dream whip in a long time. My mom used to make a chocolate dream pie with it, and the little version of me used to beg for it weekly.
Dream Whip was a big staple in my house when growing up up and was used in lots of jello recipes and other dessert recipes. I can’t get it anymore at our grocery store.
Growing up we used Dream Whip all the time. Making jello parfaits, on angel cake with berries, on strawberries, mixed with pudding to make mousse. We thought it was special🎉 I used to make baked tomatoes in the 70s bit used the guts chopped fine instead of rice and mixed with Italian breadcrumbs, so it did have herbs😅 . Wishing you a successful surgery and good recovery.❤
I used to enjoy a "Dream Pie". Mix the dream whip like you just did. Next make some instant pudding. When they are both made, mix them together, put in a ghrahm cracker crust. and chill. It will be extra tall and fluffy. Enjoy!
I have a recipe from my Aunt , called Dream Whip Torte with crushed pineapple. Have made it for many years. My husband requested it for dessert all the time. Very good !
I love watching your channel. It brings back my childhood. I had the best mom growing up. She would let my brother and I cook with her. Especially during Christmas.
The tomato dish is what they make all the time where my mother in law lives, stuffed tomatoes, peppers, hot peppers, grape leaves, onions, but they put alot of herbs in it, they are delicious
Good luck with your surgery. One recipe I remember was from a Jello cookbook. You prepared lime, orange, cherry and raspberry in flat containers and let them set(small packs). I think you use a large pack lemon and let partially set then mix in a of one pack of dream whip prepared into the lemon jello once that is mixed add all of the different jellos to the lemon mixture that set and cut up into squares. This will be put in pan that is lined on the bottom and up the sides with lady fingers(sponge kind). Let it set in fridge until set. I think this was called crown of jewels. It was really good but makes a big pan.
Take care of your health, Anna. We will all be here when you are feeling up to posting again. But it's super-cool and sweet of you to try to film ahead so we can still get videos when you're recuperating. Cheers, dear one.
Good luck on the hip surgery. I totally understand hip pain. Been putting up with that pain for years. At 70, a surgery is out of tge question. Save it for younger folks.
I just had anterial hip surgery 3 weeks ago. I feel amazing! It’s so nice to be rid of the constant pain. I didn’t use crutches. I had a walker the first week then cane now nothing. I go to PT twice a week and that really helped. I hope the same recovery for you! And funny I am making a baked tomato tonight- mine has mozzarella instead of cheddar but very similar style.
Best wishes on your hip surgery, hope you have a speedy recovery. When I was young we would make a chocolate dream cake using Dream Whip. It was very good
Having no time to fool around scooping out tomato guts, my preference is to just slice the tomato and pile the filling on top, cover it with cheese, and microwave it. That is actually my preferred method for making a tuna melt, since I am gluten intolerant. But if I've been very careful watching gluten intake for a while, I can transfer the microwaved pile of tomatoes, tuna and onions, dill pickle slices, and melted cheese onto a slice of rye bread, splash it with some hot sauce, and call it a masterpiece!
I own a rollator that doubles as a wheelchair. It's so wonderful for getting around when it's needed. I have lent it to family after surgeries including back surgery and it's so nice to have the support to walk and the option to be wheeled when your body is just done.
I live in France and there’s a French stuffed tomato dish, but uses ground beef, spices, the tomato flesh and bread crumbs. It’s called Tomates Farcies, not a light dish. I did make it once, but felt my recipe of it was too much work for the product. You can buy them premade in the grocery store. Wishing you all the best with your upcoming surgery. We will be here whenever you post!
Wife here -husband had hip replacement and it was great! Walked out of surgery far better than he walked in even wit a 2 hour drive home from surgery we were home by noon
I had the same surgery after dealing with it a year. Orthopedic said it was one of the worst imflamed labrum hes seen. Ended up having to have a second to remove scar tissue that developed very quickly even though i did absolutely everything i was told to do including months of PT and more to try to break it up. I hope that doesnt happen to you. Just so everything they tell you and i hope you have a speedy recovery!! Love your channel!!
We always mixed a packet of Dream Whip with a small box of pudding mix to make a type of frosting for a cake. I think we made the recipe for the instant pudding and mixed the Dream Whip powder in with it, but I can't remember for sure.
Hi Anna! I just inherited a stack of vintage BHG cookbooks and some blue cornflower Corning ware! Since finding your channel about a year ago, I’ve discovered a love of vintage cookery. Thank you! Hoping your surgery goes as well as these things can and your recovery is speedy.
My mom has used Dream Whip for years and still does today! I remember her using it on puddings , deserts all throughout my childhood in the 60’s and 70’s 😋 I cannot believe it’s still sold today…
Hi Anna! Thank you for all the recipes you featured today. I am excited to make the stuffed tomato! Wishing you a speedy recovery, dearest! Don't worry too much about the videos. We will still love watching them! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Prayers for a successful surgery and recovery. I have served stuffed tomatoes as a side to steak or ribs, etc. However, the tomatoes are peeled in my preparation. I think they are far superior to stuffed peppers. As for Dream Whip, it's a good product. I haven't used it for a few years, but grew up with it. I remember the flavor being oddly sweet. Have a blessed day 💖✝
Good luck with your surgery. I hope everything goes well. I’m about to have my seventh back surgery. I have the best looking surgeon in the world. I just keep going back for more! Much love and prayers.
We use Dream Whip in a family recipe named Fruit Surprise. Combined with the chewy crust and canned cherry pie filling, it is a great flavor. So nice to have on hand. Good luck with surgery and wishing you a speedy recovery.
I was just a half second ahead of you on “tomato guts” or possibly I read your mind. I’m 61 yrs and I remember Dream Whip from my very young days and then Cool Whip frozen toppings from more teen years. All the recipes looked good but I think I will try the Curry dish. Get well soon wishes to you. Be patient with yourself in recovery, surgery of any kind will be exhausting so don’t be disappointed that you don’t have your usual pace. ❤
When I was younger we used to make an Angel food cake, cut in half (2 rings) mix the Dream Whip and put on held dream whip and cut strawberries. Put on 2nd ring then rest of the berries and dream whip. Hip Replacement- get a leg lifter…highly recommend.
I have the Culinary Arts Institute Leftovers book. My favorite recipe in there is the baked Coffee Custard on page 43; I've made it so many times! I do hope your hip procedure goes well and that you have lots of books to peruse while resting.
I've just found your channel and I love it!! I thought it was cute when you said breakfast sandwiches aren't on normal buns. I'm from Texas and at Whataburger they have the BOB. It's breakfast on a bun. Literally they use the hamburger buns. With some of their spicy ketchup is heaven!!

Hope you have a speedy recovery, Anna. Don't worry about video postings etc. Take time to feel completely well and take care of your health first. We'll be here for you when you are good and ready.
I say yes to that..we want her better
Thank you! ❤
Yes! We'll be here when you get back. Just take care of you! I feel your pain - literally.

I agree! Please take care of yourself, Anna.
"Meet your fate" admonishes Anna to a fugitive mushroom.
I'm dying!!!! 😂😆
It was holding onto that dish for dear life! 😂
Was 14 in 1959. My Dad grew the best tomatoes. Mom would stuff them with tuna salad.
Yummy!!
So classic!
That sounds so good!
This is one of those channels where I feel as if I'm able to time-travel back to a simpler-time, especially the times I spent helping my mother in the kitchen. Here's to all those who can't be with us for the Memorial Day Weekend . . .
Cheers !!!
❤
If you eat it for breakfast....it's breakfast. Cold pizza, leftover Chinese. Whatever makes you happy and feeds you.
If you prepare dream whip with the eggnog that’s available around the holidays, or even with chocolate milk, it makes a really decadent topping or frosting, or a filling for cream puffs.
Here's to a quick recovery! If you are making videos ahead what about some meal prep videos for someone who is having surgery/baby/caring for another, etc? Or alternately some quick dinners with 15 minutes or less prep and then whatever bake time? And if you take a break, no problem. We'll be thumbing through our recipe books or going back and watching content we missed.
I missed so many of Anna's videos before I discovered her page. So I will definitely be kept busy looking up all of her older posts.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
My best friend's mother would use Dream Whip to make a delicious root beer float cake. It was IBC root beer, a white cake mix, and Dream Whip. The root beer replaced the water or milk called for in the cake and Dream Whip. After baking and cooling; the cake was chilled in the refrigerator. Then the Dream Whip made with root beer was used to frost the cake. Served cold from the refrigerator it was a delicious summertime treat.
Ohh I would love to see you make this cake on your channel. A very interesting way to incorporate the Dream Whip!
That sounds delicious! I vote with you - Anna should definitely use some of her box of Dream Whip for the root beer cake!
That tomato filling made me think of the "Spanish rice" my mom made when I was growing up in the 70s. It would be good with capers!.
YES capers would be excellent with it!
I'm sorry you have to have surgery! Also sorry that you had to justify that decision on camera, just to ward off comments from people that have no business judging what you know is best for you. Take care of yourself. We will be here when you heal and feel like filming again. I love your channel!
Thank you! ❤
Girl, no apology necessary when you are taking care of yourself! Wishing you a speedy recovery and hope surgery corrects and heals the pain. Take the time you need, we will wait patiently.j

Thank you!! ❤
Prayers for successful surgery and speedy recovery!
Thank you! ❤
I love stuffed tomatoes with creamed spinach topped with parm cheese as breadcrumbs ❤
That sounds delicious! 😋
I use dream whip all the time. Dash of vanilla or almond extract works well in it.
When I had foot surgery I didn’t have the upper body strength for crutches so I rented a knee scooter with a front basket, which gave me my freedom back. Also don’t forget a small shower chair and hand held shower hose. These are things you don’t think about until you need them.
Stuffed Tomatoes are so good in the summertime, I fill mine up with tuna salad or chicken salad.So yummy 😋
I love how cheery mid-century design was. I collect Kate Spade stuff the way you collect cookbooks, and it's because of the happy designs. I do wonder about those toast caddies like the ones in that cookbook, though. I've always thought they were cute, but it seems like the toast would dry out.
I hope you have a speedy recovery! June must be the month for surgeries. I'm having a hysterectomy for fibroids next month.
Thank you! and I hope your recovery is also swift and you're feeling better soon.
My husband just had a hip replacement on Wednesday. Don’t know the difference in the surgeries, but we were home by dinner. They had him up and walking within a couple of hours.

Native Floridians love tomato sandwiches for lunch. Nothing better! Especially if that tomato was recently plucked off the tomato plant in the backyard!
As a Floridian, also, I’ve taken more than a few tomato sandwiches to work, sooo good! And I’m eating strawberries 🍓 like there’s no tomorrow!! 🍅 🍓 ❤️

Omg I totally thrifted that slotted metal spoon you used on the tomato!! Spoon twins!! 😂
I was here for the original recipes, but watching again months later, I'm so intrigued about the kippered herring scramble!
The curry dish reminds me of coronation chicken, which was invented to be served at Elizabeth II's coronation. Not the same dish, but similar idea.
Best wishes on your surgery. Dream whip is what we used before Cool Whip came on the market. As you can tell, the advantage was the shelf-stable aspect .

I found this cookbook today at an estate sale for $.50!! I was so excited. Thank you for doing your videos!
Hope your surgery is successful and you have a speedy recovery❤
Thank you! ❤
Okay so I came at full speed back to this video! I just watched a Beryl Shereshewski video, “how people cook tomatoes around the world” and she did an Egyptian stuffed tomato! I instantly thought of this video and how cool it is that cultures physically so far apart love a tomato stuffed with rice and other amazing things!
Such fun! Wishing you all the best on your surgery - hope it gives you the relief you need.
Thank you! ❤
Heck, yeah I remember Cool Whip! My mom used it all the time. Probably because we had six kids and heavy cream would’ve been a lot of money with the family of eight.

Thank you! ❤
wishing you well during your surgery and recovery. You must be exhausted from making shows ahead of time Thank you so much for doing that. enjoy your show so much I've learned so much about just general cooking knowledge. Even though I'm old I can still learn to cook new ways.
Never to old to learn new things!
😉❤
Best of luck with your surgery.❤️🇨🇦
Thank you! ❤
Wishing you a good recovery. I suffer from hip pain too.
Thank you!
I bought Dream Whip during early pandemic when things were hard to come by. I remember my grandma making it when I was a kid. I remember liking it. My tastes have changed...it just tastes like chemicals to me now. It made me really sad and nostalgic.
So sorry about your hip pain!! I hope the surgery and recovery go super smoothly for you.

I also so so wish you well with your hip surgery. My mother had hip surgery and it took a few weeks for her to recover, but I wish you so much luck. Happy healing!
Thank you! ❤
I never thought of a stuffed, baked tomato. Usually I serve a fresh tomato stuffed with tuna salad or chicken salad. I serve it cold as a salad.
I do remember Dream whip! But it’s dim. The horrific assortment of processed food we lived on is truly amazing to me. Lol
Get well soon !
OMG! That's crazy girl! I JUST had arthroscopic labral repair on left hip in March! I'm just wrapping up physical therapy and am about to embark on a two week trip to Colombia, so wish me luck! I've been working hard to be able to just make it through an airport in a hurry!

Take good care of yourself! Pamper yourself! Get some silly lego or jewelry making kits or something fun to do with your hands when you are stuck in bed the first couple of weeks. Oh, I got a toilet chair for that first couple of weeks, and had to wear a nightgown with ahem, well I ditched the underwear because those first couple of weeks on crutches and not putting any weight on the affected leg can be brutal when trying to pee! The raised bars on the toilet chair were a godsend, and skipping underwear for that first week made the whole process a lot easier. And my partner was amazing, helping me on and off that first week or so. I hope your partner can help you at home so you heal up with more ease. Ok, I was just surprised to hear your update since I haven't run into ANYone else lately who is having or had a labral repair!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!
Thank you for sharing your experience! I hope your trip goes smoothly. ❤
Yes, I still use Dream Whip! I make the Dream Pie recipe on the box for grandkids. They love them just as much as I did as a kid. They also like making the pies! Wishing you all the best with your surgery! I've been watching your videos for a long time, but hadn't commented. We'll be here when your feeling up to posting again! Don't push yourself! ❤
Cavalcade of Food is a fountain of knowledge on anything vintage. He got me hooked on vintage appliances
I love Kevin
I love when he changes out the large appliances in his studio kitchen (fridge, stove, etc) for different ones!
@@cooking_the_books omg all those vintage ranges… I would love to find a vintage gas range.. not an electric fan
@@cooking_the_books Yes exactly, Ralph or others to help, but a massive undertaking.
Did you notice his custom made counter top, which can be slotted - in or removed depending on the width of the stove x
Anna! DREAM WHIP! What memories that brings back! My neighbor in the early 70’s used to put a packet in her cakes..right before everyone started putting pudding mix in. Her cakes were Devine..in texture and moisture! Now I have to dig out my box of old recipes and make a cake! Love ya, Girl! Good luck with your surgery! We’ll be here waiting for you! ❤🐾
Extra prayers for your upcoming surgery. Thank you for taking care of yourself, too often we tend to ignore our own needs when we take care of others. Even when it's making funny, delightful and visually delicious recipes for a few thousand strangers. xoxox 🙂💜
It seems like many dessert recipes from the past used Dream Whip as an ingredient, now that it’s on your radar you might see some recipes to help use it up. Different joint, but my sister had shoulder labrum surgery after trying PT and injections and she’s glad she made the decision to have it. Not only is her pain relieved, she feels free from having to modify her day to day activities to prevent increased shoulder pain. She said she sleeps better now with not having to accommodate certain positions to avoid pain. So I wish you a quick and complication free recovery. 😊
Thank you!! Glad to hear your sister is feeling better after her surgery...I'm hoping to feel that way after mine.
I like to stuff tomatoes with tuna salad. I do remember dream whip, I don't use it anymore but I remember it being decent. I hope your surgery helps, pain is rough. Take all the time you need to heal. I made chicken curry for supper but it wasn't like yours.
Yummy I love tomatoes I’m 62 I was a only child sometimes my mom would make a pot of rice and add a can of tomatoes yummy the one day she would make a pot of cream of chicken and add wide egg noodles that tomato 🍅 reminds me of my moms old dish going to make it this week thants and today is Monday and it pouring rain out side it’s Ga
Scrambleburger on toasted everything bagel is divine!!!
I hadn't thought about dream whip in a long time. My mom used to make a chocolate dream pie with it, and the little version of me used to beg for it weekly.
Mom and me would use Dream Whip when I was a kid before Cool Whip wax a thing. We'd especially use it in fruit salads, desserts, etc.
I have a vague recollection of a chocolate pudding and dream whip pie from the 1980's.
The music is so Charlie Brownesque. I love it!! Totally mid century. 😊
Glad you enjoy it! I love choosing the music for my videos. One of my favorite parts of the editing process.
Dream Whip was a big staple in my house when growing up up and was used in lots of jello recipes and other dessert recipes. I can’t get it anymore at our grocery store.
Growing up we used Dream Whip all the time. Making jello parfaits, on angel cake with berries, on strawberries, mixed with pudding to make mousse. We thought it was special🎉 I used to make baked tomatoes in the 70s bit used the guts chopped fine instead of rice and mixed with Italian breadcrumbs, so it did have herbs😅 . Wishing you a successful surgery and good recovery.❤
I used to enjoy a "Dream Pie". Mix the dream whip like you just did. Next make some instant pudding. When they are both made, mix them together, put in a ghrahm cracker crust. and chill. It will be extra tall and fluffy. Enjoy!
I have a recipe from my Aunt , called Dream Whip Torte with crushed pineapple. Have made it for many years. My husband requested it for dessert all the time. Very good !
Sounds divine! 😋
I remember eating Dream Whip. I also, remember not caring for it. I was a little surprised to find that it's still available.
I love watching your channel. It brings back my childhood. I had the best mom growing up. She would let my brother and I cook with her. Especially during Christmas.
The tomato dish is what they make all the time where my mother in law lives, stuffed tomatoes, peppers, hot peppers, grape leaves, onions, but they put alot of herbs in it, they are delicious
I LOVE stuffed grape leaves! 😋
There is a recipe called Snowball Cake that uses Dream Whip. It has an Angel Food cake that has been torn up and gelatin and Dream Whip.
Good luck with your surgery. One recipe I remember was from a Jello cookbook. You prepared lime, orange, cherry and raspberry in flat containers and let them set(small packs). I think you use a large pack lemon and let partially set then mix in a of one pack of dream whip prepared into the lemon jello once that is mixed add all of the different jellos to the lemon mixture that set and cut up into squares. This will be put in pan that is lined on the bottom and up the sides with lady fingers(sponge kind). Let it set in fridge until set. I think this was called crown of jewels. It was really good but makes a big pan.
Take care of your health, Anna. We will all be here when you are feeling up to posting again. But it's super-cool and sweet of you to try to film ahead so we can still get videos when you're recuperating.
Cheers, dear one.
Thank you! ❤
Good luck on the hip surgery. I totally understand hip pain. Been putting up with that pain for years. At 70, a surgery is out of tge question. Save it for younger folks.
I am so glad i found your channel.
I'm enjoying the recipes you make.
Thank you! Glad to have you here. ☺
I just had anterial hip surgery 3 weeks ago. I feel amazing! It’s so nice to be rid of the constant pain. I didn’t use crutches. I had a walker the first week then cane now nothing. I go to PT twice a week and that really helped. I hope the same recovery for you! And funny I am making a baked tomato tonight- mine has mozzarella instead of cheddar but very similar style.
My mom always had Dream Whip in the cupboard. I rediscovered it and keep it in case I need it lol.
Best wishes on your hip surgery, hope you have a speedy recovery. When I was young we would make a chocolate dream cake using Dream Whip. It was very good
Having no time to fool around scooping out tomato guts, my preference is to just slice the tomato and pile the filling on top, cover it with cheese, and microwave it. That is actually my preferred method for making a tuna melt, since I am gluten intolerant. But if I've been very careful watching gluten intake for a while, I can transfer the microwaved pile of tomatoes, tuna and onions, dill pickle slices, and melted cheese onto a slice of rye bread, splash it with some hot sauce, and call it a masterpiece!
Hope everything goes good with your surgery and you have a speedy recovery.
I own a rollator that doubles as a wheelchair. It's so wonderful for getting around when it's needed. I have lent it to family after surgeries including back surgery and it's so nice to have the support to walk and the option to be wheeled when your body is just done.
I live in France and there’s a French stuffed tomato dish, but uses ground beef, spices, the tomato flesh and bread crumbs. It’s called Tomates Farcies, not a light dish. I did make it once, but felt my recipe of it was too much work for the product. You can buy them premade in the grocery store. Wishing you all the best with your upcoming surgery. We will be here whenever you post!
Wife here -husband had hip replacement and it was great! Walked out of surgery far better than he walked in even wit a 2 hour drive home from surgery we were home by noon
I had the same surgery after dealing with it a year. Orthopedic said it was one of the worst imflamed labrum hes seen. Ended up having to have a second to remove scar tissue that developed very quickly even though i did absolutely everything i was told to do including months of PT and more to try to break it up. I hope that doesnt happen to you. Just so everything they tell you and i hope you have a speedy recovery!! Love your channel!!
We always mixed a packet of Dream Whip with a small box of pudding mix to make a type of frosting for a cake. I think we made the recipe for the instant pudding and mixed the Dream Whip powder in with it, but I can't remember for sure.
Hi Anna!
I just inherited a stack of vintage BHG cookbooks and some blue cornflower Corning ware! Since finding your channel about a year ago, I’ve discovered a love of vintage cookery. Thank you!
Hoping your surgery goes as well as these things can and your recovery is speedy.
My mom has used Dream Whip for years and still does today! I remember her using it on puddings , deserts all throughout my childhood in the 60’s and 70’s 😋 I cannot believe it’s still sold today…
Love this and I remember dream whip get to to feeling better.
Hi Anna! Thank you for all the recipes you featured today. I am excited to make the stuffed tomato!
Wishing you a speedy recovery, dearest! Don't worry too much about the videos. We will still love watching them! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! ❤
Definitely remember Dream Whip, grandma used it instead of Cool Whip
Prayers for a successful surgery and recovery. I have served stuffed tomatoes as a side to steak or ribs, etc. However, the tomatoes are peeled in my preparation. I think they are far superior to stuffed peppers. As for Dream Whip, it's a good product. I haven't used it for a few years, but grew up with it. I remember the flavor being oddly sweet. Have a blessed day 💖✝
Good luck with your surgery. I hope everything goes well. I’m about to have my seventh back surgery. I have the best looking surgeon in the world. I just keep going back for more! Much love and prayers.
We use Dream Whip in a family recipe named Fruit Surprise. Combined with the chewy crust and canned cherry pie filling, it is a great flavor. So nice to have on hand. Good luck with surgery and wishing you a speedy recovery.
I grew up with Dreamwhip. My mom loved it.
❤ Kevin of Cavalcade (& Marianne & Ralph). I just recommended him last night when someone was curious about an old kitchen item.
My great-grandma had a recipe for coleslaw that involves "Dream-Whip". My mom recently made it, and I must say, it was addictive.
I was just a half second ahead of you on “tomato guts” or possibly I read your mind. I’m 61 yrs and I remember Dream Whip from my very young days and then Cool Whip frozen toppings from more teen years. All the recipes looked good but I think I will try the Curry dish. Get well soon wishes to you. Be patient with yourself in recovery, surgery of any kind will be exhausting so don’t be disappointed that you don’t have your usual pace. ❤
When I was younger we used to make an Angel food cake, cut in half (2 rings) mix the Dream Whip and put on held dream whip and cut strawberries. Put on 2nd ring then rest of the berries and dream whip.
Hip Replacement- get a leg lifter…highly recommend.
I have the Culinary Arts Institute Leftovers book. My favorite recipe in there is the baked Coffee Custard on page 43; I've made it so many times! I do hope your hip procedure goes well and that you have lots of books to peruse while resting.
Coffee custard sounds delicious...I'll have to check out that recipe!
I've just found your channel and I love it!! I thought it was cute when you said breakfast sandwiches aren't on normal buns. I'm from Texas and at Whataburger they have the BOB. It's breakfast on a bun. Literally they use the hamburger buns. With some of their spicy ketchup is heaven!!
All the food looks easy and delicious. I'm glad people are liking these videos. 👍😋
I haven't seen dream whip since like 1982 I'm surprised yah can get it awesome video
I hope your recovery is quick and painless and you heal to pain free. Take good care of yourself.
Thank you! ❤
