Everyone, enjoy their their Labor Day. Just remember that whether you eat in or out there are several people responsible for your meal.
If you've gone to the grocery store thank the people there who work hard to maintain a good and clean place where you can buy your food. Also keep in mind the workers who pick your veggies and fruits along with dairy workers and those who work in plants to give you everything from cookies to cold cuts.
If you're eating out today, then tip your waiter a dollar or two extra for their help. Waiting tables is no joke as is cooking in a diner . Short order cooks have to create a variety of dishes in practically no time at all. Also leave an extra dollar for the bus boy too. They are the ones who have the messy job of cleaning up after you.
Whatever you eat today think about the tons of workers who made it happen and hope that they have a a day off from their toils and labors.

Liz Lovely Cookies A New Favorite!
I've recently discovered an amazing cookie company that produces the most decadent cookies. Why are they so amazing ? Because Liz Lovely cookies can bake something so sinful and decadent without dairy or eggs. They also create gluten free masterpieces that would make your knees weak! How could something so good taste soooo bad?
The company was started back in 2003 by Liz Lovely ( it's not listed whether this is her real name or an alias) and Cowboy Dan (his nickname???) her husband in crunchy granola Vermont, home to some of the most organic and wholesome products in the world. Their beliefs mirror other all natural green Vermont industries with supporting sustainable and local agriculture by using products grown in their immediate area. They also use all green packaging when shipping. Above all this Liz and her staff make cookies that are just simply good. They are good tasting and good for you, perfect for those with dairy or egg allergies or those with gluten problems.
What I love is that the cookies taste like pure heaven. I've only bought two kinds , the amazing awesome Cowboy cookies and the Snicker Dudes. The first is a wonderful meld of walnuts oatmeal and chocolate and actually taste buttery. The cookies have a chocolate bottom which makes them more candy like . The Snicker Dudes are these again buttery tasting snickerdoodles. They have just the right amount of cinnamon to give them a punch. I also like that the fact the cookies are big. like those individual bakery cookies and they come two to a pack. I am dying to try their mint Lovely Ohs which is a chocolate cover minty Oreo along with some of the gluten free chocolates.
Pure and natural doesn't t have to taste bland and boring. Liz Lovely Cookies makes that certain. They may be wholesome in ingredients but sinful in taste!

Cool Treat Cool Whip
It's occurred to me that I've never written entirely about that American dessert staple Cool Whip. This is a must for almost any treat or dessert.At my house its; used constantly , especially with pies and fruit. It's a great way of adding that something extra to sweet endings without any sweet calories.
Cool Whip was invented in 1966 0r 67 by William A Mitchell a chemist for General Foods. It is a more or less non dairy products made from is made of water, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup with hydrogenated coconut and palm kernel oils and vanilla extract Even though it is non dairy it does have a milk derivative in it known as sodium caseinate. Seasonal Cool Whips are strawberry (being sold right now in the warmer weather) and chocolate. The aerosol was introduced last year in 2008 to compete with Reddi Whip. I like my Cool Whip from the aerosol can, It's fun to spritz in different fruits or to add flourish to pies and cakes.
Cool Whip is great because you can use it as an icing or as whipped cream sub. It's a phenomenal topping for any cream or overly sweet pie such as pecan (the topping balances the fillings gooey sugariness). A fun dessert is an instant chocolate mousse made with just an equal mix of chocolate pudding and Cool Whip. This is a great quick ender that will impress guests. My favorite way to have Cool Whip? Over sliced bananas and chocolate syrup. This is my go to at home dessert and snack. It's kind of like a banana split but without the ice cream.The aerosol version is also good on strawberries. Don't worry. Cool Whip is zero calories so you can eat as much as you like.
Cool Whip is a fun addition to any dessert or sweet snack. It makes just sliced bananas or strawberries extra special. It adds to any plain slice of cake. It's just a cool treat.
