"I had this recipe dog-eared in an old 1992 Country Woman magazine. I haven't made it, but it looks simple, quick and tasty to top off any meal."

Simply delicious. I reduced the sugar the 2 tbsp since I find strawberries naturally sweet enough for my tastes. I also added a tsp of sugar to the whipping cream. We loved this dessert. The orange juice is a very nice flavour booster for the whipping cream. I think this would be good over other fruit as well. -
Chick - I just can't believe that something so VERY simple makes such a great impression for a dessert! What a nice flavor with the orange juice in the whipping cream. I served it by just topping the strawberries with the whipped topping instead of mixing the strawberries in. My kids raved and raved! Edited to add: I did add 1 tbls granulated sugar while whipping the cream. Whipped for 5 minutes and then added the orange juice and continued whipping for 1-2 minutes until firm again. Worked great! I'm so glad I recipe-napped you in the AU/NZ Swap May 2008!

I am...
~a mother of 2 kids (19 and 22) who are extremely picky eaters. The mere mention of "healthy" sends them running in the opposite direction. They prefer the creamy, cheesy, fried stuff that they weren't brought up on!
~a wife of a wonderful man who fights an expanding waistline and will lovingly eat most anything I set before him. Everything is 5 stars to him. :) He's the easiest customer a cook could ask for!
~a teacher who tends to reach for comfort foods to relieve stress. I am a middle school reading specialist. The miracles I see on a daily basis keeps me going! But it's also stressful, so keep me away from the cookie jar! I really have to fight off the sugary, fat-laden stuff that has no worth beyond the momentary comfort in my mouth.
~and I'm also a daughter who was brought up on home cooked meals back when calories meant nothing and taste was everything! That is an idea built into my system that's hard to shake! My mother raised 8 kids (I'm #7) on her home-cooking and I always teased her that she didn't raise a single skinny kid! I luckily inherited her great love of cooking and baking. (I miss you Mom!)
~finally, I'm "mom" to the best Bichon in the world. He is Quincy, our kid in a dogsuit. He's 13 years old, but still a puppy to us.
