| Snow Ice cream |
Really very simple, very quick!
Ingredients:
1 can of condensed sweetened milk
1 tsp vanilla axtract
8 cups snow (clean, freshly fallen)
Serves about 4.
Takes about 5 minutes to make from start to serve.
Mix about a teaspoon of vanilla extract into a can of condensed sweetened milk. Put about 8 cups (I used a soup ladle to measure since the handle is longer and it measures a cup) of CLEAN FRESH FALLEN snow into a large bowl and pour the milk mixture over the snow. Cut the mixture into the snow until well combined. Serve immediately.
You can also use vanilla bean or mix in chocolate syrup to taste for chocolate favor.

With all those un-ripe apples I made 3 loaves of apple cinnamon raisin bread, 6 pints of diced and spiced apples in syrup & a crockpot full of apple butter. The ones that didn't go in the pot either went into compost or sliced an thrown at the deer.

| Wild Red Huckleberry |
Wild red huckleberries can be found growing out of old tree stumps all over the property. These tangy, blueberry-like fruits give a refreshing zip to muffins and pancakes.
