 My Mom gave Chuck and I our ice cream freezer for our first Christmas we were married.  That means it's 40 years old.  I wish I knew how many gallons of ice cream we have turned in it.  When the kids were babies, we started our tradition of making homemade ice cream for July 4th.  Even the July 4th's that we have spent at Gene and George's, they have made homemade ice cream for us.  (theirs is electric though)  It takes about 20 minutes of constant turning.  Who ever turns in the beginning, has it the easiest.  It gets harder and harder to turn and Chuck ends up being the last guy to turn and for the longest.  I got the recipe from Gene when we first met them.  ....it sure is good ice cream!...especially when you put good ole Alabama peaches in it.  We just made vanilla this year and I made a 1/2 sheet cake.  Shell decorated it like an American Flag.  (can't believe I didn't get a picture of it...dang!)
