We have a picnic on July 4 where we are supposed to bring a dish. An hour before the picnic... what should we bring? We have lots of fresh-picked raspberries and that vanilla pudding I got last week. After a few minutes of Google-searching for things that use those two ingredients (no results, except for baked items and stuff of the wrong kind), I am going to make my own recipe for this.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 family size package instant vanilla pudding (the size that uses 2 1/2 or 3 cups milk)
  • 2 1/2 cups milk (2 cups would probably work for a thicker pudding)
  • more raspberries for topping

Mash 1 cup raspberries in a bowl. Mix pudding and milk into raspberries. Chill for a 2-3 minutes. Cover top with rasperries. Mix into pudding. Cover top with raspberries again. Chill until ready to eat.

Timer

The timer can count up from a time in the past or count down towards a time in the future.

The timer's appearance and the format of the time (and text) is very configurable. You can hide it's border, it's background, set the color and glow effects.

Sound Recorder

This is a simple recorder that records directly to an MP3 file. Recording can be paused and resumed.

The recording window has a compact mode and can be set to stay on top of other windows, so it can be out of the way, yet still visible.

When done recording, you can playback the recording or upload the file to an FTP site.

RocketDock with multiple bars\docks

It seems there is plenty of interest about how to make RocketDock work with two or more docks or bars. Most answers say to use additional docking programs--one for each dock you want. Or use a commercial program that offers multiple docks. I think RocketDock is excellent except I want more than one. I finally figured out how to do it!
