Speaking of recipes, I want a recipe for that banana pudding with the
Nilla wafers and so forth!

Its on the Nabisco Vanilla wafer box I'd guess.

And there are fancy version on the internet with meringue topping etc.

Anyway, we just layer vanilla wafers, sliced bananas, and vanilla pudding.
Chill and top with whipped cream.

I thought it usually had banana-flavored pudding.

I am getting hungry reading all these post on food, and I already had
supper.
Guess I can always have a late night snack.

Sounds yummy! I saved it in my recipe collection as 'Stinky's
Intoxicating Potato-Mushroom Soup.' If I get around to making it, I hope
Caliban doesn't fall into it.

It certainly can, but banana flavored pudding hasn't been around all that
long. I'm thinking a bit of coconut flavor along with some toasted coconut
for the top would be good too.

Some of the recipes even had home made pudding. A little too complicated
for me.

The recipe I have is for Southern Banana Pudding, and uses whipped cream
mixed with the vanilla pudding, too. It's very rich and totally
delicious. I've never made it yet, but I LOVE it when I find it.

When Lily went through her "taste mommy's peppermint tea" phase, *SHE*
seemed fine. But my tea wasn't....she sneezed in it!

I had a cat that was greedy for anything I happened to be eating. Once
while eating some raw cucumber I saw the cat licking its chops and broke
off a piece of cucumber for it. It took a sniff and gave me the most
obvious "You've got to be kidding!" expression before it trotted off.

======================================
With some cats, they don't actually want to eat it, but must be offered
some. I'd give Spicey a taste and she'd try to bury it and stalk off.
