Making Ice Cream with the Moo


The Moo came home from school today with some Mother's Day presents she made in her class, and insisted that I open them "RIGHT NOW" (she was sounding pretty Beanesque). The gifts were wonderful, and the best one of all was a Mother's Day cookbook, which contained recipes and menu ideas from every child in the class. The Moo's was the very first one, and goes as follows:

The Moo's Mother's Day Dessert Menu: Chocolate milkshake, purple popsicles, red popsicles, Vanilla ice cream, Chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake with balloons, candy corn, gumballs, and party hats.

Moo's Homemade Goat Ice Cream Recipe: First you MUST find a goat. But you must find the FRESHEST goat!!! So go to the petting zoo. Look for a fresh white goat, because that's how you get white milk. Now sit down and SQUEEZE his udders. Go on, just keep SQUEEZING his udders. Squeeze as many milk from him as the bucket. Take the bucket to your house. Leave it in the fridge because you want to keep it fresh. Get three ice. Actually get a TON Of ice from your house. Get a box of ice. The box needs cool, cool, cool air. Break the ice. Pour it into a bowl. Put the whole bucket of milk into a bowl. Now go to Giant and get three gallons of cream. Spray all the cream into the bowl and mix it with the other cream from the goat. Bow stir it until it get ice-creamy. Stir this definitely not one minute, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven, not eight, not nine . . . but 10 minutes! Then you can use two cups of ice cream for the milkshakes. This is enough for a party! You could also make homemade cow ice cream. I saw this on TV! Just SQUEEZE his udders hard! I will know more about how many animals give us ice cream when I watch "Most Extreme" next time.

The Moo's mother day advice: Always put a heart on your mom's cake for Mother's Day.
