Ice Cream Scoops For Your Favourite Desserts
By Ginger O’Riley
Ice cream scoops, to collect ice cream dessert is one of the
many things we all relish in our family home. During the summer,
especially when we arrive home after a long day at work, we like
to sit down and relax with our favourite flavours of ice cream.
There is always a variety of ice creams in the freezer, helping
us survive the hot and humid summers.
If it is an especially humid day, we like to sit on the patio,
in our wicker chairs and eat ice cream. It helps one relax and
cool down. Sometimes we use an ice cream machine, to make ice
cream with our choice of ingredients. We also have a number of
recipe books with ice cream recipes.
After a number of years of making our own ice cream, and comparing
with ice cream bought from a number of food stores, we have settled
on our favourite flavours. But, we have not settled on the best
ice cream scoops, as my husband keeps buying new scoops to try
out.
Entertaining Your Family With Ice Cream
Have you ever met someone that is passionate about a certain
kind of food? Until I met my husband I would have had to answer
no to that question. I have met people that love certain foods
or all foods in the case of one of my friends. But these people
did not have the passion that my husband has.
He loves many kinds of foods, which is great because he is easy
to please when it comes to make meals and he is also willing to
try a variety of things. The food that he is passionate about
is ice cream. His dream job would be being a taste tester for
a major ice cream company.
Ice Cream Served As A Dessert
Due to his love of ice cream we usually have a variety of kinds
in the freezer. Also when we are out and about in different communities
or cities we have to check out different ice cream parlors. The
surprising thing is that he is not overweight. He has a fast metabolism
which works in his favor.
Because of his love of ice cream we usually serve it in some
form as a dessert when we are entertaining. He likes to have a
variety so this requires having several ice cream scoops in the
gadgets drawer. I tease him that if he cannot find a job as a
taste tester he can get one as an ice cream scoops specialist.
One Drawer For All My Ice Cream Scoops
We have purchased so many different ice cream scoops that I have
dedicated one drawer specifically for them in the kitchen. We
do not keep all the scoops that we have purchased because some
of them just do not work well.
In many of the plastic scoops the ice cream sticks so another
utensil is needed to remove it. We have round scoops for when
we are serving just a scoop of ice cream in a dish. We have flat
scoops, because he prefers more of a slice of ice cream on top
of a piece of pie. He bought one scooper that is huge for when
he is making ice cream cones.
Ice Cream Pies For Our Guests
I have been able to turn his passion for ice cream into a fund
raiser for our church. I have developed several different ice
cream pies through the years. I started creating them to serve
our guests and they have evolved into quite tasty concoctions.
We are making several of the desserts and having an ice cream
social to raise money for school supplies. I told my husband that
his passion will help the church community. He is going to help
serve and he is hoping that there will be many leftovers.
He is disappointed that the desserts will be cut instead of scooped.
He wanted to be able to show off his collection of ice cream scoops.
Planning A Birthday Party
We are making preparations for a birthday party for our princess.
She is turning eleven and she loves sitting with her dad and eating
ice cream. She has now requested her birthday cake be made of
ice cream. I have placed an order with the cake shop down the
road, and it should ready for her birthday party.
The birthday party will be on a Sunday afternoon, just like it
has been every year, during the summer time. All the children
come and play a variety of games. The parents sit in a separate
room and come to collect their children when the party is over.
Ice Cream On Christmas Day
Although it is cold at Christmas, rather than eat Christmas pudding,
we eat ice cream as a dessert, straight after Christmas lunch.
Everyone has their favourite style of ice cream, and I ensure
their wish is fulfilled with their favourite ice cream on Christmas
day.
When we have dinner parties in our home, we always enjoy ice
cream as the final dessert, after my husband brings out his collection
of ice cream scoops.

Did You Know About Breadmaking?
Oh, the fresh smell of bread baking. The smell of the fresh bread
rising and then baking in the oven is a scent that is unmistakable.
You do not have to be Martha Stewart to enjoy bread making. There
are recipes out there that will amaze you with how simple they
are and how healthy they are for you.
You just need the right ingredients and the right tools for the
job. There are even bread machines and kitchen machines that do
all the kneading for you! How easy is that?
It is hard to imagine that flour, water and yeast all come together
to form something so scrumptious. Each by themselves are important
but when mixed together, let alone to rise and then baked, are
transformed into something so wonderful that only tasting can
adequately give it the proper kudos.
Bread making may not be as simple as combining those three ingredients
but it is not as hard as most people make it out to be. With the
right recipe and the right equipment anyone can make a great tasting
loaf of bread.
