Snow Icecream

I don't know how you feel about snow, but I love the stuff. It's pretty when it falls and it's pretty when it covers everything. As if those weren't reasons enough to love snow, I discovered a new use for it last year. Snow icecream!

I love eating something that came from outside. The same snow that I see through my window in the morning could easily become a bowl of icecream by the afternoon.

It's a wonderful feeling to gather snow right before you make something with it. The same feeling occurs when you pick something from a garden you've been tending to, I suppose. But snow just shows up. I don't have to water, fertilize or watch the snow sprout. I can just enjoy it.

I think you will like snow icecream. It's snow easy to make! Ha-ha. I made a funny.
