Mr. Ice Cream Man

So.
I’m back.
I’ll have you know Photography is a time consuming profession. Just editing the pictures is a very very time consuming process, and not for the faint of heart. It is teadious, but looking at the images over and over again makes you think hard and creatively about processing them. Its not that much different than sending a snapshot off to an artist to have a portrait painted, and I am a tad bit surprised. But I love it. I could sit and edit all night. Just ask my husband, who was probably like “Dude - are you still at that computer?” last night, I know this cause he said it at least twice last night so I guess its safe to say the thought passed his mind.
How ever he is still the man I fell in love with as it is spring time and he tends to get a little creative around this time of year. I beleive it was mothers day last year he bought a ice cream maker for my gift as I am gormet and Alton Brown says home made ice cream is better than stuff in a store.
And wouldn’t you know it, Ol’ Alton was right! How ever I am not the ice cream guru in our house, thats Jerry’s domain. Last year he made strawberry and a chocolate and you would have been in ice cream heaven, it was so rich you could just stop for a single spoonful and be happy with your day. This week, the machine is back!
He made a chocolate espresso bean ice cream, and a mint chocolate chip, both are heavenly and I don’t normally like my ice cream busy.
So my goal is to get him an additional bowl for the ice cream maker so he can do more than one flavor at a time, cause he’s alwys thinking up stuff he’d like to try. I think in his former life he was Ben or Jer- wait… never mind.
Every time he makes ice cream I think of this STOOPID song from like 1995. I still strongly dislike Master P as much as I did in 1995, doesn’t mean his songs don’t get stuck in my head all the dang on time.

    The funny thing about the ice cream thing is that I LOVE making it, but I’m only lukewarm on eating it. I need more tupperware cause I got a few more on the list:

    1) Chocolate Banana Chunk
    2) Caramel Rum Chocolate Covered Raisin
    3) Rocky Road (I really wanna see if I can get it right)
    4) Death by Chocolate
    5) Just Chocolate
    6) Super Strawberry (strawberries come into season soon, don’t they?)
    7) Taihitian Vanilla Bean
    8) Apple Cranberry Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Dough (Holy Crap!)
    9) Chocolate Covered Almond Joy

    And the funny thing is I might have half a scoop from each before tossing it back into the rear of the freezer and going back to the drawing board.

    Hmm…maybe I’ll try an italian ice cream or something. Hmmm!!

    OMG! My coworker came up with two great ideas!

    10) Rice Krispy Ice Cream
    11) Guiness ice Cream (which already exists thanks to Emeril!)

    I can do the Guinness Ice Cream with Dark Chocolate Honey Sauce TONITE!!

    Woo!
