most recent trip to Los Angeles with a travel agent, I had to explain to her where Cranbrook was located, and how to get out of it by plane.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t think she was having a very good day when I phoned her, as she seemed rather annoyed about 1. my location, 2. my limited airline options, 3. the fact that Paul and I don&#8217;t have the same last name.\u00a0 After arguing with her that a one hour stop over in Calgary was NOT enough time to get through security (switching airlines takes us out of security area) and customs (damn USA), and her insistence that one hour was the &#8220;standard allowable time&#8221;, she finally relinquished and &#8220;allowed&#8221; us to be routed through Vancouver.\u00a0 After all that, we had our tickets, and we left Cranbrook in a snow storm, and arrived in LA in the warm sun! \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Visiting YouTube Space LA again was great!\u00a0 They have such a great group of people that keep that place running.\u00a0 While there, we met up with Chef Jason Hill of the YouTube channel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/ChefTips\" target=\"_blank\">Chef Tips,<\/a> and we decided to do a collob together.\u00a0 On our channel, we make these delicous cookies and cream stuffed strawberries, and over on his channel, we make an adorable <a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/FEdKtuOnKME\" target=\"_blank\">fruit turkey<\/a>!\u00a0 Make sure you check his channel out.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kseAUlFDNEw\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\"

sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.\u00a0 Set aside.\u00a0 Using a sealed bag, or a food processor, crush the cookies into a fine crumb.\u00a0 Add to the cream cheese mixture and combine.<\/p>\n<p>Using a sharp paring knife, remove the stem and core of the strawberries.\u00a0 Fill the empty cavity with the cookies and cream filling.\u00a0 To enable the strawberries to stand up, cut a small slice off the bottom of each to create a flat bottom.<\/p>\n<p>With your melted chocolate, cover the top of the strawberry (where the cookies and cream mixture is).\u00a0 To do this you can either dip the top of the strawberry directly into the chocolate, or you can use a piping bag to directly apply the chocolate to the top.\u00a0 While the chocolate is still soft, apply the sprinkles and mini sandwich cookie to the top.<\/p>\n<p>Serve immediately and enjoy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_target addtoany_list\"
