Many of us of a certain age, have great memories of making homemade ice cream on lazy Sunday afternoons. Going to our grandparents and being allowed the priviledge of having a go at turning the hand-crank on the wooden ice cream maker. Fighting with cousins about whose turn it was next. And who got to lick the paddle or who got the first cold, creamy bowlful.
The taste of sweet, vanilla frozen cream has to be one of the best taste treats of childhood. And then running through the salt water that had been poured out on a patch of weeds.
Or maybe you remember those 4th of July family picnics. Cold fried chicken and potato salad with homemade ice cream for a finish.Or perhaps the church ice cream social stands out in your memory. That was an occasion when the church ladies tried to outdo each other with chocolate and strawberry flavors. Look over the huge selection of ice cream makers on this site and relive some of those memories. Or start some new memories for your family.
