I admit that both fluffy and linnaea are tough cookies and that I am so pleased and proud for them, each in their joy with the good Men who have claimed them. Blessings and my love to you both. I admit that I now make my own mayonnaise, which is orders of magnitude superior to (tastes better and fresher, is better for you, and is way cheaper than) anything bought in a store. I admit that this is our recipe: - 2 whole eggs - 1 egg yolk - 1 tsp lemon juice salt and pepper to taste (lemon pepper? even better. feel free to experiment with spices. this also makes a great base for dressings..) 2 cups safflower, sunflower, or extra light olive oil (go as organic and healthy as possible when selecting your oil. do not use conventional cooking oils for this, they are not good for you and taste heavy and gross. only go with the olive oil if you'd like a bolder, Mediterranean base flavor. yes, this will still come out cheaper for you, even with the schnazzy oil) Place 2 whole eggs in blender (or a deep bowl if you're using a hand blender). separate the third egg and add the yolk. add your lemon juice and spices. start your blender on it's lowest speed, and slowly drizzle in your oil while blending until it's all in. your mixture will start to thicken and turn pale in color; this is good. now cap the blender, hit "HI", and let er rip for about 2 mins. stop and test for consistency; if you'd like it a little thicker (and this is going to sound odd, but trust me..), add a little bit more oil or if you'd like a little more of a kick, add more spices and blend for another minute. ENJOY!
