only the freshest….
Ice cream has forever been a favorite.
Mr T and I have discovered a new love for it though over the summer.
fresh milk
fresh eggs
and now… fresh vanilla bean
I was gifted this week two handfuls {46} of vanilla beans, fresh from Indonesia.
I have never, not once, worked with vanilla bean and have felt like I was surely missing out on a pleasurable experience. When I see them in the store, I’m not willing to break down and pay the price. I found some through Amazon that have been sitting in my cart for quite some time, waiting for the whim to click the button and just do it….splurge!
Now I can eliminate that item from my over-crowded cart and enjoy the abundance in my possession.
I fear that my closest friends and family are going to remind me of how special I am to them and they are to me and coerce me to share….I’ll just remind them that I love to make ice cream and I will make it for them any time! {i.will.share.some.things}
My sister-in-law Nichole, shared a wonderful recipe with me for Vanilla Peach Syrup. At the time, we were picking huckleberries so she tried substituting 1 cup of huckleberries for 1 cup of the peaches and then I did the same.
Oh, my! and Oh, YUM!
I think that this syrup will be good on almost anything. You can find the recipe HERE.
