- 3 egg whites
- 1⁄3 cup superfine sugar
- 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar

- 1⁄4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sliced kiwi fruit

- Cover a baking sheet with foil, and spray lightly with cooking spray.
- In a large (chilled and copper if possible)bowl, beat the egg whites to form stiff peaks.
- Add white sugar slowly, and continue beating.
- When egg whites are very stiff, add vinegar and boiling water.

- Cool when done. Transfer onto a serving platter.
- Whip the cream until just stiff.

My name is Ami and I share my home with my husband, Carey, our two small sons, James and Charles and our daughters Meradydd (it's pronounced Meradith)and Kathrynn. Until recently, I was a Specialist in the National Guard. I'm pretty eclectic in my studies and I've learned a lot becuase of that since I don't limit myself. Right now I'm taking classes for animal care. I've also been studying a lot about herbalism and really enjoy learning about that. My mother and I also run a home based business for natural soap, balms, etc. We use only the most the natural ingredients available. I'm also a Mary Kay consultant. Busy, huh? :D I love to read and learn new things. My husband says our books will be the death of us. LOL. I love to cook and experiment. I also like to take walks, rain or not.
