Makin' Ice Cream






Whoever thought that you could make rockin' ice cream in a bag? My sister, that's who! She's the 4-H county extension agent for Ravalli county here in Montana. The day we arrived, she had an after-school club to teach and invited the kids and me along. We made ice cream. And it was good. As it should be. You know the ingredients? Cream, sugar & vanilla. Ice cream in it's purest and most unadulterated state for sure. We put the ingredients in a quart size bag. Then we went and put ice and rock salt in a bigger, gallon size one. Put smaller bag in larger one; shake, toss, gyrate and shimmy (wait a minute, we're not talking about belly dance. ice cream, think ice cream) until frozen. Then scoop out of the bag with a spoon! Yum. I'll track down the specific recipe from my sister and post it soon. Promise.

Very cool! Can you make flavored ice cream this way? Or maybe mushins are the way to go...

My mom's done that before. I have yet to try it, but your girls sure look like they're having a lot of fun!
