There are 5.4 million people who have Alzheimer's. It cost 183 billion dollars in annual costs. Alz's is the 6th leading cause of death.
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Coconut Cream Pie

My son and his girlfriend made the best Coconut Cream Pie the other day. When she started to go home I ask if she wanted  some but she no. Well my son ate it all. I did get a taste . But today she came over wanting a bite. But it was all gone. So they went to the store to get the makings for another one. Oboy! I am going to get a bigger taste today. They are making choc. cream pie too . I can share the choc. pie with mom . She will love that. Sweet and Choc. Can't beat that.
My son has been on spring break this week. He has been busy all week. Hiking , biking , painting and cleaning out the garage. If it had been me I would of had to take a day or two off resting up after doing one of the things he did . And he mowed the yard and cleaned the backyard .  Than went and sold the scrap metal. We got a whole $20 . Than he took me out to eat and to the movies. Boy what a week. Busy , busy. When he goes back to school I am going to rest. But I loved every minute of it. But my back hurts just watching him do all that.  LOL!

    I hope you get a big piece of the pie, it sure sounds good. I love any type of cream pie, and especially if someone else makes it!

    Sure sounds like your son has been busy and gotten a lot done on his spring break, glad he had some fun too.

    I hope your mom enjoys the pie!
    Have a good weekend!
    Hugs,

    Why not put coconut oil(we think good for Alzheimer's) in coconut cream pie, I thought and it worked! Instead of the liquid for the milk (3 cups), I used 2 cups milk and 1 cup of the liquid MCT (coconut oil frow Vitacost). My husband likes this pie.

    Two 9 inch pie crusts
    Two small boxes of sugar free vanilla pudding
    2 cups milk
    1 cup MCT
    14 ounce package of shredded or flaked coconut
    16 ounces of Light Cool Whip or whipped cream

    Directions: In a large bowl, beat the pudding, milk, and MCT with an electric mixer until the pudding mixture thickens. Fold in 2 cups of coconut flakes and 1 cup of Cool Whip. Pour into prepared pie crusts. Spread the remaining Cool Whip on top. Sprinkle with the remainder of the coconut flakes. Refrigerate and serve chilled.

    I put a picture of this on my blog sometime ago.

    Hugs,
    Carol
