Hello Robert -
I was surprised to discover that you've never written a sonnet. Your explication of what they should be, and contain, belies that fact. However, one thing you've insisted on in your critiques is using the exact word for describing something.
Therefore, I am going to respectfully point out that, while cream and scream are a perfect rhyme, thawed cool whip is a non-dairy product. Since most cooks (please note, I did not say 'chefs'!) are aware that cool whip topping must be thawed before use, how about a word indicating that you aren't talking about real whip cream?
I'm writing this at great personal risk to myself, as I have a compilation of recipes from my mother-in-law, and sister-in-law, half of which contain the obligatory ingredient for what is known 'down south' as congealed salad. (Why anyone would eat anything that starts with the word 'congealed' has always eluded me.)
Other than that, no nits.
Yours in good taste,
Christy
P.S. The other half of the recipes are dinner casseroles, that call for 1 cup mayo, 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup cream of anything soup, 1 pkg. lipton onion soup, 1 sleeve ritz crackers or potato chips, crumbled for topping. Needless to say, they are the only unstained recipes I own.
