Suck It, Ben and Jerry!

OMG! We made ice cream! We don't think you understand how inept we are at almost everything we do, so this was a major accomplishment. (Eating we are super good at, preparing, not so much.) Christina won an ice cream maker at her company picnic a couple of weeks ago (the same day as the torturous Hellboy movie) and we wanted to give it a try. So on Friday, Sarah's mom gave us her super secret recipe (which we will freely give out unless she pays us $.37 to keep it a secret) and we went to the store.

The store with Sarah is always a fun time. She wanders up and down the aisles in confusion and eventually just sits down and cries. Just kdiding. She doesn't cry but she is the most inefficient shopper of all time. It is kind of awesome. Cat5 always just ditches us and does her shopping by herself. She ends up finished and at the car before we have even decided which cart to pick.

So we got the ingredients and went back to Christina and Cat5's house and watched Penelope with the always adorable James McAvoy. The movie is super cute so if you haven't seen it, you should. Halfway through the movie, Cat5 got a call from her sister so while she chatted, we mixed the ingredients. It was shockingly uneventful. There were no spills or knife fights like there normally are when we are in the kitchen together. We put it in the machine, forgot to check the ice, let the ice melt completely, added some more, and finally it was done.



When we opened the lid, there was ice cream! We were so excited we were literally screaming for ice cream. It was awesome. Cat5 was completely unimpressed.

Here are the pictures of the completed ice cream. Which is the most awesome ice cream of all time!
