I scream, you scream we all scream for ICE CREAM!

Stephen and I received this beauty as a wedding gift from his cousins.  Something you need to know about Stephen, he LOVES ice cream (well anything with sugar in it, really)!  His love for ice cream runs so deep that a few years ago he limited himself to ice cream once a week.  He felt like he needed to be more disciplined with his obsession.  Since then we have "Ice Cream Fridays" - this makes Fridays all the more enjoyable for Stephen :).

I can't wait to try out our new machine!  It recently made it's way back to Chicago with us so that it could be put to good use!  I've found some YUMMY recipes for homemade ice cream online.  I can't wait to make strawberry ice cream, banana ice cream, coffee ice cream and chocolate chip ice cream!  Do you have any yummy ice cream recipes or tips for me, the ice cream apprentice?  I'd love for you to share 'em!

  2. oooh fancy!
    the last time i made homemade ice cream was in the 7th grade for life skills class and we used 2 tin coffee cans, ice and rock salt & just rolled the can back & forth for foreverrrr.
    this ice cream looks good (http://www.flythroughourwindow.com/2010/05/homemadeicecream/), i dont know if it can be made in a machine though!

  3. So jealous that you guys have an ice cream maker! I'm a little crazy about ice cream myself. I've been known to skip dinner and just eat ice cream instead - it's pretty bad! I should try to limit myself to only Fridays like your husband but I don't know that I could do it!
