crafty.witty.gay: Jell-Oh!
Most gay pride events take place in June. But just like independent movies and fashion trends that don't involve fleece, gay pride takes a little longer to make its way to Colorado Springs. So, in late July, we found ourselves planning a pre-pride brunch. On the menu were chocolate chip pancakes and breakfast pizza (yums). But this celebration needed a little rainbow kick. Which was fine, because I had Jell-O on the brain. Which brings us to rainbow Jell-O. 1. 2. 3. This isn't hard but it is time consuming.

I went to see tUnE-yArDs on Monday night with some friends, and as always we wanted to cook a meal that somehow related to the show we were heading to. Sometimes this is hard to do, but other times it seems to come naturally. Finding culinary inspiration in Merrill's lyrics seemed like it would be tough, but my sister knew what she wanted to make without hesitation. Start by making a lasagna crust. Finally got it together. Now it's easy, just start building the layers! Alfredo sauce with some salami goes first. After 3 alfredo layers, I switched to pesto. A cheese only layer, just for fun. Tomato sauce is last. It's important to press things down as you go. In my opinion, it can't be lasagna without at least a little ricotta! I painted on some alfredo at the end as a glue. All sealed up. After baking. The flip is always a scary moment. Unveiling. A thing of beauty. Cutting is another tense event. Glorious! I still can't believe how great this came out and how awesome it actually tasted!
