strawberry zombie jello fiasco, a pictoral how-to.
Below is a recipe for how-not-to-make a strawberry & lemon jello zombie brain (or for the optimists among you, a how-to on making a failed strawberry & lemon jello zombie brain).
1. Gather Your Ingredients
- 1 brain-shaped jello mold.
- 2 boxes of jello (or off-brand ‘gelatin dessert’ for my fellow thrift-seekers)
- several strawberries.
2. Wear a dress or apron or pants with a strawberry pattern. This is non-negotiable.
3. Fill your brain-mold with the first packet of jello and let it set in fridge until you lose patience with waiting… for me this was about 20 minutes.
4. Slice some strawberries in the inbetween time… make them into a face and giggle at the whimsy.
5. Place a layer of berries on top of the first jello layer, pour the next layer on top of that and add EVEN MORE berries. You will start to feel like you are the sheriff of Berryland, USA… don’t fight it. It’s awesome.
6. After it has set over night, turn the mold upside down. Weep at your failure. Eat it anyway, preferably next to matching fake flowers.

If it’s any consolation, it turned out to look quite an awful lot like my brain after all, including the strawberries.
(I am well aware that this is, in fact, NOT any consolation. But your berrygarb is wonderful.)
The Constable of Berryshire says:
You can treppan the jello with a straw!!
“treppan”!? is this an ancient jello dialect that you speak?
