Aquarium Jello

Ingredients

  • goldfish bowl, nice and clean
  • red hots or Jelly Belly gravel beans
  • blue Jello
  • ice cubes
  • cold water
  • purple endive
  • parsley sprigs
  • gummy fish

    Method

    1. Use a new or well cleaned goldfish bowl. In the bottom place Jelly Belly beans that look like rocks.
    2. Mix up as much blue Jello as your bowl will hold. Mix using ice cubes & cold water instead of the cold water called for on the box. Pour this into the bowl over a knife blade or something to keep from disturbing the gravel.
    3. If you want it to have 'seaweed', poke a couple of pieces of purple endive, parsley or something similar down into the gravel.
    4. When the whole thing starts to jell, use a wooden skewer to push gummy fish into different parts of the bowl.
    5. For an added touch, include plastic ships, divers and treasure chests.
