DIY?

My conundrum: Do I buy an ice cream maker and try making flavors on my own?  Or am I too lazy busy?  I recently finished up classes for grad school so I’m thinking I might try to take back some of my life.  For starters, I rejoined Netflix (not good—I’m also a tv & movie addict!).  Should I also buy an ice cream maker & go crazy or will it just sit on my counter, frowning at me like the crock pot, rice cooker, and blender?

The pic above from The Frozen Fix (where there are lots of recipes, like this lemon poppy seed ice cream) almost makes me want to do it.

Ice Cream Club, New York City

Interesting…apparently there’s an “ice cream club” in NYC, where people bring the ice cream they’ve made.  If only I wasn’t so lazy busy, I’d make an ice cream club here in Chicago.

They’re having a meeting soon.  If you’re in NYC, check it out:

bkbrains:

Ice Cream Club is basically the best and cheapest (and only?) way to eat 1,049 flavors of homemade ice cream. You bring some ice cream you made, and so does everyone else.

And it’s been forever since we’ve had a meeting, so you must come on Sunday, June 19, from 1-3pm at the Brainery, 515 Court Street. No need to rsvp!
