The week after Easter was full of tests, and last weekend we were quite busy bodies as well. Now that I have all sorts of free time on my hands I knew this was the first thing to do. Monday night I ran to Barnes and Nobles and picked up a book full of recipes, after sitting on the floor with all the different books laid out beside me and reading through to find the best one.
Making ice cream brought me back to my Moons day. Last summer Erinn, Allison and I got to create our own flavors then Jeff helped us bring it to life. It was quite the time let me tell you.
Wednesday nights we always go next door to watch Revenge. Since it's been MIA for like a month last night it was finally back on so we celebrated with big bowls of homemade ice cream and caramel sauce. We gobbled it up reallll quick. Also, Tuesday night I sent Jared home with a tupperware for Kevin and he gobbled it up Tuesday night and finished it yesterday morning.
