Raspberry Pretzel Salad

This is yet another one from the trusty ol’ Thurston recipe book. 

So have you ever been working on your laptop, and then you take said laptop to a public area and it’s only when you open up the laptop in this public area that you finally notice how disgustingly dirty it is? 

Like, it seems like every dust mite and smear in the known universe somehow made it’s way to your keyboard during your journey? Then you start thinking to yourself if only those Black Friday deals at PromoCodeWatch would hurry up and get here so you can buy a new one!

Yeah. I hate that. 

That’s totally how I feel going through these pictures.

I SWEAR to you that my pan was clean when I was taking these pictures. 

I’ve either got a REALLY great lens, or really crappy eyes. 

I think I need glasses. 


I definitely need glasses.

Now that I’ve drawn all that attention to the condition that my pan is in, let’s take a look at the food. That’s what we are really all here for. Not to judge me on my dishwashing skillz. 

This salad is SO GOOD. 

It’s hard to classify it as a salad, when it’s totally a dessert, though. 

BUUUUUTTTT….. it makes me feel better. Like, when we have this for dinner and I’m going back for seconds in front of everybody I can just say “Oh, no worries. I’m just getting a little more salad.”

See? Magic. 

If only my butt would buy that, too. 

You probably didn’t want to hear about my butt. 

I apologize.

For the Gelatin Layer
