RASPBERRY PIE AND BAD BACK

Got up this morning and could barely walk.  I'm sure many of you get this now and then........severe back pain from something I must have lifted wrong...........it is hell getting old.  I just can't slow up.........keep thinking I'm able to do everything I used to........sigh.  So, we decided on burgers..........its my idea to try to copy a "White Castle" hamburger........they are so special. BUT........since Bob was cooking and I was down on the couch.......he had to follow my instructions which of course, he refuses to do and did it his way.  They turned out good........is there a bad hamburger?..........but not the way I wanted them to..........so I will try again........when I am behind the stove.

I did make a raspberry pie. (Standing is no problem.......its bending and sitting) I am sure most of you have made this.......but always good to be reminded.  First make a graham cracker crust. Then in a bowl........put a pkg raspberry jello........add 1 cup of HOT water, stir to dissolve and then stir in about 1/2 cup of cream cheese cut into chunks........stir til some of it dissolves and some chunks are left then add your 1 cup of cold water and put in frig til partially set.  About an hour.
Then I added a cup of blueberries and a cup of raspberries.  I beat a cup of whip cream with 1tsp of sugar and folded all of this into the jello and berries.  Ladle into your pie crust and chill at least another hour.  This was my daughter-in-law, Arelys, favorite.  I miss her so.
