Strange....but true.

How did we let the whole summer go by without making homemade ice cream??

So, in order to remedy the situation, we made some last weekend. 

Mix it up.
Pour it in the cylinder.
Put in the paddle.
Pop on the motor.
Plug it in.
Dump the ice around.
Add the salt.
WAIT....
Add some more ice... and wait.

Finally!!  Mmmm.  Doesn't that look good?

 LittleJ accepted the job of being the official taste-tester. 
After all, you just can't waste what's hanging on to the paddle.

How does it taste, LittleJ?  MMmmmm.  YUMMY.

Here's what goes into our "Oh So Yummy" Ice Cream:

6-7 eggs, beaten well
3 quarts whole milk
3 cups sugar
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
1 pint whipping cream

Mix together well, and freeze.  I also added a teaspoon of almond extract... perfect. 
Simple and delicious.
And, believe it or not, there's still some left in the freezer for this weekend.  YAY!!!
