I hope you’re not too sick of sweets after the holiday weekend… I’ve got a good one for you today! I have to sneak it in before the New Year, because I’m pretty sure it won’t help you with any of your resolutions (unless, of course, your resolution is to try some fabulous new flavors…
Last summer, I finally figured out the whole homemade ice cream thing. After a year or two of icy homemade ice cream that turned into a brick when I popped it into the freezer, I finally realized that starting with a custard base was the way to go. I’ve been making lots (and lots) of…
A few weeks ago, my mom did some cherry picking at a local orchard… And, since cherry picking is not one of my post-surgery approved activities, she picked some cherries for me and brought them over to my house. My mom is good like that! While the cherries were fabulous for snacking (believe me, my…
This month was one of my favorite challenges since I started Kitchen Bootcamp last April (can you believe it’s been over a year now?)… We all know that I am a big fan of desserts (especially ice cream), so I had great hopes for this challenge. While I didn’t have nearly as much time as…

Warmer weather is on the way… I was doubtful for a while, but the last week or two have proven that it is true! When the weather is warm, I always have one thing on my mind… Ice cream! So, naturally, that has affected my choice for the May Kitchen Bootcamp challenge. I knew that…
I have professed my love of the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte many times. I love all things about autumn, and I wait all summer for the first cool day when I need to wear a jacket. So, when the first pumpkin spice lattes grace the menu at my local Starbucks, I’m there. As much as I…
You may be wondering why I specified that this is 100% homemade ice cream. After all, I usually make everything from fresh ingredients and bake from scratch… That’s nothing new.
