Disaster in the Making - Trials of English Trifle

This is a moment where my social experiment experiences trials before the grand release.

I looked in the fridge and I found that the Half and Half was used. In grandness of awe I wondered if there will be enough. I took the container, shook it, and questioned if I should risk the air spoiling the splendor taste only to measure what was left or do I leave it only to find out at the last minute if there is not enough. I then decided to leave it while I ponder the situation over the next two days.

I then reviewed the ingredients for the trifle. What was supposed to be raspberry jell-o turned out to be strawberry... strawberry! In hopes the sale is not over at the local grocery store, I plan my attack.

Will I make it or will the house hold of Dave devour everything before the moment?

Behind My Madness

Hello world! I'm Dave. As you can see, I am preparing to post instructions and a video on how to make, what I consider, to be the best dessert in the world. Before I continue with this, I wanted to introduce myself to you.

There is a purpose to my madness and it is called Public Relations. No, I'm not a professional... yet. I am currently working for a degree in PR and Advertising with an emphasis in Marketing. As I am learning the facts of PR, I found that the Social Network and Media changed the rules of business. **You just discovered that Sherlock?** Yes I did. It never occurred to me the power of the internet but I am still a skeptic. I still believe that face to face relationships in business matters more than a computer with fiber optic cables telling me something else.

With the backing of my education, I am taking the necessary steps to make this project work. Will it make or break me, I do not know. You, the world, will decide for me.

Join me in my journey. This is my social experiment.
