Glad Wrap

I was cooking up batch after batch of Rice Crispy Treats. 

 

After cooking up eight double batches, we crossed the century mark. 

100 Rice Crispy Treats wrapped!

Stacy and I got into a nice rhythm and the cooking process became a little easier.

The plastic wrap cutting and wrapping never got easier. The roll of wrap tumbled out of the box, the blade needed sharpening and the wrap was more likely to stick to itself than to anything else.

I was disheveled, exhausted, demoralized, drunk and lost.

Stacy spotted my downward spiral and came to my rescue! 

"Don't get Mad. Get Glad!® " She exclaimed, making an Air Registered Trademark symbol with her right hand. 

She tore some new sheets of wrap from the roll and began carefully folding the rice crispy square into a warm nest of plastic film.

This technique, which she called "swaddling", looked fun, and the treats seemed to enjoy it too!

Back on track, the evening continued, and the pile kept growing and growing.

When we reached 200 treats, I took this photo. Fifty stacks piled four high!

Just after midnight, the roll of Glad wrap began to look a little dull. The end was near.

The final tally was in! We had wrapped 220 rice crispy squares with one 200 square foot roll.

That's an average of 131 square inches of wrap per Rice Crispy block.

Eighteen dozen Rice Crispy treats, even when carefully preserved with plastic wrap,  demand to be served. Sure enough, Tuesday was game and treats night.

In this case we combined the two in a rousing game of Edible Jenga!
