Ice Cream for Breakfast

Ice Cream for Breakfast!!..why not?

Genavive turns!

Shell turns

Oona turns

Papa turns
Shell's request was for us to make "homemade ice cream" while they were here.  Our tradition is to make it on July 4th, but since we weren't together this July 4th, we did it while the girls were here.  We used some of the peaches we got from the farmer's market.  The only thing was, we were out of ice cream salt.  Chuck ran into town to our little grocery store, but they were out of ice cream salt. How can a grocery store be out of ice cream salt?  Everyone up here makes homemade ice cream during the summer so I guess it makes sense.  So, he bought kosher salt.  I told him I didn't think it would work and guess what!  It didn't.  We all took our turns turning.  Shell and Chuck turned the most.  When the ice cream should have been frozen...it wasn't.  This is the first time in 42 years that we have had the ice cream freezer, the ice cream didn't freeze.  So, I poured it into a container and I put it in the refrigerator freezer and let it freeze over night.  We had homemade peach ice cream for breakfast the next day!  Sure was good.  Hey, it will just add to the memory that Genavive will have at Oona and Papa's...having homemade ice cream for breakfast!
