I recently learned how to make ice-cream.
It’s really good – so much better than bougten, in my opinion.
And making my own helps my kids learn patience – none of this buy-it-on-a-whim-from-a-grocery-store nonsense. No, sir! If you want ice-cream, you have to wait until it’s made.
This is what I love the most about all-from-scratch foods – they teach the sense of appreciation stemming from the knowledge of what it takes to put them on the table.
Starting with raising the veggies and the cattle.
That is, starting with my husband raising the veggies and the cattle.
Things like this.
And this.
Anyhow, with the incredible recent heat wave, I jumped into the making of various ice-creams and never looked back.
This here is the raspberry ice-cream I made when the raspberries were peaking at our farm. We liked it very much. You can find the recipe here:
Raspberry Ice-Cream on Edible Madison
Try it with blackberries, too!

I found your blog through Brian’s A Thought for Food, and I’m so glad that I did. This ice cream looks perfect. And your little ones made my day. Thank you for sharing. I’ve yet to make my own ice cream but I want to…now!

Thanks for stopping by! I am well familiar with your beautiful blog, and I just wanted to say, I am so, so sorry about everything your family’s been through in the past several years. I hope this is not a wrong time to say it.
Ice-cream is much simpler than any of the projects on your blog, you just need the machine. I mostly got into it because we are now having unusually hot summers, and because of the kids.
My gosh this ice cream’s really mouthwatering.
Blackberries would be yummy too!
Gotta try that.
Thanks for this.
