I am in!
This is exactly what we need with all of the stuff going on.
I am taking hand cranking it like in 1924. Everybody takes a turn.
Earn your ice cream.
Peaches might just be the perfect fruit.
Just Fish… Your post reminded me of a favorite memory from summer camp. We would all take turns hand cranking the ice cream maker with the reward of a special treat shared among us. You are right… With everything going on, simple wholesome pleasures like homemade ice cream is a most excellent reminder of good times shared with family and friends.
I agree! Happy childhood memories of taking a turn cranking the churn!
