Trouble in the Kitchen

Have you ever had one of those days when trying to get something cooked quickly?  I  wanted to finish up so I could go outside to "play".  My plan was for a carrot cake, chocolate chip bars and a pineapple pie.  The cake and bars were done.  This was an easy pineapple pie made with sweeten condensed milk.  I had all the ingredients, so it was going to go together fast.  I opened the pineapple, made the crust, found the 1 and only can of sweeten condensed milk that was in the pantry.  I opened the can...yuk..it was not a pretty site.  I guess it was ok, but it looked like burnt sugar.  I looked at the date...just a year past due date.  Hmmm ok maybe not.  OK, I would just look up a recipe and make some.  One cup evaporated milk and 1 1/2 cups sugar.  Cook and cook some more...it is really thin.  But the taste is good.  So now I think about the recipe...if I use the thin milk that would make the pie soupy.  Ever had a soupy pie?  Ok, it is time to change the recipe.  Online I go.  Pineapple, dream whip, and cream cheese.  Yep, that is it.  Made that and Hubby is eating away at it.  It is not soupy and he likes it. Mission accomplished.  Oh, the cake and bars are for Sunday potluck.
