Love this time of the year. Summer, fun, outdoor activities and lots of ice cream. Plus, it’s time for my birthday!
Birthdays are very emotional to me. I cherish every day of my life. When it comes to celebrating my birthday, I can’t just stop being thankful for the opportunity God gives me daily to be around my girls and grow up along their side. I am so very thankful.
This year Mr. gave me a special surprise. He got me a Cuisinart Ice Cream Machine and it even arrived early. Love early presents. Love presents!!!
Don’t you just love the color? I absolutely love that turquoise color!
I have already started testing some ice cream recipes. Can’t wait to share them with you and indulge you in some amazing ice cream treats. Stay tune for some chilled treats during this hot and so anticipated summer!!!
Now, I want to hear from you. Do you have a favorite ice cream flavor(s)? Do you have an ice cream recipe that you just love and want to share? Love to hear from you.

Happy Birthday! What a beautiful ice cream maker. I was given one a few years ago by family but haven’t been successful yet. I only pulled it out last summer, but I don’t think I had the container in the freezer long enough because it never set up properly.
Maybe this year will be the year. But because of lack of freezer space, I think I’d rather have the ice and rock salt ice cream maker.
Denise, I keep my container in the freezer at all times. That helps. You can try keeping it in the freezer for at least 12 hours. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. My first ice cream recipe is a Chocolate Ice Cream that I made to try the machine and we loved it. Will post it tomorrow, if God permits. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
