What I Did:
I started a new blog project in which I am regularly making and discussing vintage recipes, and thought this Jello in a pineapple can was pretty clever and especially appropriate for New Year’s dinner since we were having ham. In a rush to get out the door on New Year’s Eve, I quickly made some Jello and poured it into the can, per the directions (without re-reading the instructions, because how hard is putting Jello in a pineapple can?!?!). I did modify the recipe a bit (lime to cherry, with added maraschino cherries) to fit in with our dinner. WHOOPS! Tactical error with expected results.

My Result:

Next Time I Will: I would re-read the instructions again, like three more times, before I made anything using gelatin! This is not my first time in the kitchen I KNOW better haha!

    What caused it to fail? Too much water, or changing it to Cherry?

    Saw your blog and the pic you put up under the “fail” (bloody looking family) roflmao! But I also saw you redeemed yourself and had a “win” good job!
