btw, we bought an ice cream maker and it rocks. while the sisters/aunties were here, we went up to burlington to spend a gift certificate at williams sonoma, and one of the things we bought was a cuisinart i.c. maker.
the first attempt was a disaster-we tried to make lemon sorbet. we messed up the simple (HA!) syrup, and ended up with lemon slush. i did make vanilla ice cream last weekend and it was great. rich and sweet and yummy. now i want to make pumpkin and/or egg nog flavored for the holidays. what do you think? come on, what did you expect from a former scooper?
