As we stated in our last entry, Robyn and Scarlett have mastered Messenger and Facebook pretty well but other devices not so much. Robyn texted Scarlett of how she had just poured windshield wiper fluid in the wrong container under the hood of her car and it would not start. She asked her if her husband could respond back what she should do. Scarlett, knowing that her husband answers everyone else’s calls and rarely hers, she advised Robyn to seek a neighbor’s help for it would late evening before he called back.

In the meantime, Scarlett let Robyn know that she had been working 3 hours trying to get her printer to connect with her computer to print out an advertiser’s contract to no avail. Being that they both are emotional eaters, Robyn made a big adult beverage and went to the hot tub while Scarlett baked a fruit tarte with intentions of eating the whole thing….ahhh misery loves company.

Here are the recipes:

Fruit Tarte

grab a pre-made pie crust and let it thaw on the counter until pliable. Then place in a vintage pie plate and let it hang over the edges. Open a can of blueberry pie filling and a can of peach pie filling and pour the two into the pie shell spreading the mixture around to the sides evenly then add two pats of butter to the middle and fold the overhanging crust up and over the edges of the pie. Sprinkle the top with brown sugar and bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, let chill then slice the pie and eat a piece or eat the whole darn thing depending on your frustration.

Pinky Shake Beverage

pour pink grapefruit into a chilled shaker add appropriate amount of vodka to kill the pain and shake. Now pour that delicious concoction into a plastic salt rimmed glass (remember you are going to a hot tub so no glass) and enjoy!
