I’m feelin’ pretty good this week. I’ve been making tacos and quesadillas and drinking ginger grapefruit beer (the redhead of beer) the whole time. I’ve been having a fudgesicle for dessert after lunch. I’ve been walking Elliot in the morning, and not running in my shirt that says I run. I’ve watched sad-ish movies. I’ve been painting my nails and then switching the color. (Commitment issues.) So it’s time to make frozen everything, you guys. It’s…
Happy First Day of Summer! Let’s spend the toasty days making all the chocolate ice cream, ok? Chocolate Coconut Milk Ice Cream // Chocolate Ice Cream Dark Chocolate Sorbet // Chocolate Frozen Yogurt + Cookie Dough Chocolate Orange Sherbet for Two // The Darkest Chocolate Ice Cream
I’ve come to the conclusion that having a car with a manual transmission means you have a car with one more part that can break. You see, my clutch totes quit it’s job. No shifting allowed. My car being sick for over a week resulted in me riding my bike to work in a not-cute way. You see I pulled up to a light, dropped my water bottle, spilling it errywhere. Meanwhile this hip lady…
It takes me 1 1/2 blocks (driving) to finish a toasted sesame seed bagel with cream cheese. It takes me the opening song of The Wire to finish my cornbread pizza. It takes me the 30 minutes before leaving for dinner to make this ice cream, leaving me just enough time to switch my shoes and put on lipstick. Do you ever buy the ingredients to make something discovering that you can’t make it until…
I could eat ice cream every day. Winter or summer, hungry or full, before dinner or after dinner, today and tomorrow. Lately, I’ve been into soft serve of the chocolatiest-chocolate variety. I’m into blizzards and flurries with mix-ins. The more chocolate the better. So, I figured, why not make a vegan remix! I knew I wanted to use this chocolate coconut milk ice cream because it’s the creamiest and dreamiest. And these cookies are cakie like…
There’s something you should know. A couple weeks ago, while riding my bike, I ran over a remote control car. It was awkward for everyone. If it makes you feel any better, later on in that same bike ride, I almost fell while simultaneously losing my shoe and discussing pork tenderloin with grilled sweet potatoes. Karma, man. …like the time I paid at the art store in all dimes only to come outside to an exacto…
I crave ice cream daily. It’s just the truth. So I thought I’d try this frozen banana business since it’s an ice cream that is ready for snacking quickly! You just need frozen bananas, cocoa, vanilla, and more chocolate. Top this with hot fudge for a remixed banana split! Go ahead and freeze a few freckled bananas. Blend it up! Add malt powder even (Man! Now I wish I would’ve!) and enjoy every bite without worrying…
If you want to impress your dog bake him these treats. If you want to impress your bread, make this jam. If you want to impress your sisters, make strawberry infused vodka and orange creamsicle ice cream floats. My sisters aren’t my neighbors. One lives in Illinois, the other lives in Minnesota. So when I knew these two lovely ladies were going to stay with me this weekend, I knew I needed to get girly with…
Our apartment is a major hottie. And not in the “good-looking” way, but rather in the “too hot to make a salad” way. So we opted to go out for dinner (again), and follow it up with frozen custard. I’m a waffle cone kind of girl. Jake’s a rainbow sprinkle kind of guy. We talked about tattoos and shorts. I totally recommend you try this place. The chocolate custard reminds me of French Silk pie, and…
Chocolate ice cream is my favorite ice cream of all the ice creams. Jake’s been asking me to make it ever since I made vanilla for our hot fudge sundaes while there was snow on the ground. I’m a total jerk for waiting this long to make it. I know that now. That photo up there is what the base looks like before it’s refrigerated for hours. That’s my face reflected in it’s lovely brown…
