Need A Cool, Fun, Delicious Diversion?

Intended at first for kids out of school for summer, but you could probably divert anyone with this.  Bella and I tried our hands at homemade ice cream this evening.  We made vanilla-Heath "blizzards," and they were great.  Best part?  Took 5 minutes, start to finish.  More details are over here, but the basics are just milk, vanilla, and sugar in a zip bag, shaken for a few minutes (4, for us) inside a larger bag containing ice and rock salt.  Try it!  If nothing else, it will distract you from HARRY POTTER for five minutes.  Sheesh.

Great way to have fun and keep cool. Thanks for the inspiration.
