Scarlet and Sophia's Letters

Dear Sophia,

Can you believe we made our own ice cream?! My hands got really cold shaking the bag, but it was worth it. The ice cream turned out delicious! If anyone else wants to try it, here is what you have to do:

• 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• ½ cup rock salt
• 1 pint-size Ziploc
• 1 gallon-size Ziploc
• Ice cubes 

Just put the first three ingredients in the smaller bag, and the salt and ice cubes in the big bag. Seal the small bag carefully into the larger bag and shake it around for about five minutes. It should thicken up like soft-serve ice cream! If your hands get cold, you can hold it with a dishtowel.


Leesia and Lilly thought our ice cream was delicious! Next time maybe we can add strawberries!

XOXOX,

Scarlet

PS Look at this picture I found! It's Lilly and me playing with the Bilibos...don't we look hilarious?
