But then, I started thinking about how my experience with social groups so far hasn't been very successful, and so I decided to just pout, instead. So I'm really happy that somebody else did it instead!
So: here's my recipe for
Lime Jello with Stuff in it
1) Make sure your spouse isn't watching
2) Open box of Lime Jello, and prepare contents in accordance with instructions on box
3) Add stuff
4) Chill in refridgerator
I recommend hiding it behind milk and juice cartons, while its jelling.

50g of butter
For the Top:
750g Mascarpone
3 tbsp of Icing Sugar
5 tbsp of Mint chocolate drinking powder
1 tbsp of coca powder
1/2 a bar of Mint Aero - crushed
For Decoration:
The other half of the Mint Aero.
Line a springform tin and grease.
Melt the butter in a pan. Crush the Milk Chocolate Digestives and add to the melted Butter. Stir until the mixture has been coated by the Butter and the Chocolate has melted.
Add the Digestive mixture to the tin and cover the bottom, pressing firm so the base is even and compressed. Leave to one side.
In a large bowl add the Mascarpone, Icing sugar, the Mint Chocolate and the Coca powder and stir till the mixture is even. Add the crushed Aero bits so they are even throughout the mixture.
Add the Mascarpone mixture to the tin, making sure the top is even. Decorate with the rest of the Aero.
Place in the fridge to set and chill for about 1 hour.

It's very healthy for you because it has mint and chocolate in it.
