Little Man weighs in...

Ats & Crafts day with my main man, G. We're making a homemade jewelry box for his mommy's birthday next week, and I also told him we would make our own homemade ice cream. I gave him 4 flavors to choose from, and of course he wants two. Top of his list: blueberry frozen yogurt and orange popsicle ice cream. He chose these over other offerings, such as green pea ice cream...I thought he'd find the exotic amusing (especially since he likes all things green), but he said "Yuck!"


We'll likely half or drop the full quantities somewhat, as he doesn't need 2 quarts of full fat ice cream and neither do I. I'm also omitting the small amounts of liquor for his benefit. I certainly don't want to lose my Good Aunt privileges.


UPDATE: the jewelry box is precious. Bright jade green covered in sparkly beads. He did most of it, I only assisted with the glue and paint touch ups. So, so precious.

The blueberry yogurt turned out fantastic. I accidentally bought fat free plain yogurt, and you couldn't tell. Yumm-O! The orange popcicle...not so much. I think the oranges were too bland. Perhaps I should replace half with pure OJ concentrate instead next time? Not sure.

Little Man wants to try the green pea next time...so adventurous.
