It began snowing yesterday morning
and it was still snowing when we went to bed last night!

It seems like winter doesn't want to leave and, though
we are anticipating spring, we are awed and God's creativity

This is our kitchen window from the inside.
The wind blew the snow and it stuck on everything!


So, we had 8 inches of snow on the ground, we were getting a little
cabin fever, and craving something sweet.
So, we decided to make Snow Ice Cream!

It turned out sooo good and it's extremely easy!
Brandon went out and gathered a big bowl of fresh snow.
We started throwing stuff in and ended up with
a sweet bowl of what tasted like homemade ice cream.
We like to call it Snow Cream :-)

Here is the recipe if you have some fresh snow on the ground:

A big bowl of snow
1-2 cups milk
1/2-1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla

Stir in just enough milk to make the consistency of ice cream.
We added some half and half too to make it more creamy,
but you don't have to.
If it gets too runny just add more snow.
Add sugar and vanilla to taste.
You can add other flavorings like strawberry syrup
or chocolate syrup if you like.
The vanilla tastes like homemade vanilla ice cream though
and its really good :-)
Stir altogether and enjoy!



There's some left in the freezer from last night and it may
be gone by the time Brandon gets home from work ;-)
