You know the old saying..”Life gives you lemons, make lemonade.”

Well, I guess I took it to heart. All this snow, while beautiful and fun for awhile, it does tend feel like the very thing keeping you stuck in the house. A love hate relationship. This time of year is trying for all of us. I know I’m not alone. So, instead of falling deeper in the cabin fever rut, we decided to enjoy the snow while being stuck inside. If you can’t beat it..join it or at least try to not think of it as your enemy. (which I’m having a bit of trouble with) 

Making snow cones, with drink of your choice. The Kids picked kool-aid.

Making snow ice cream. While Ben & Jerry’s has no need to worry about the “snow” cream becoming competition. It’s still fun, adding what every flavor your tongue craves. The kids love it and anything to keep them happy in February is worth it.

• 1 Cup of milk
• 1/2 Cup of sugar
• a couple drops of vanilla
• FRESH & Clean snow.
• Add snow to liquids, stir, keep adding snow till you get your desired thickness.

options: chocolate syrup, strawberries, peanut butter or whatever else you want.

I’m a chocolate ice cream, fudge & pretzel kind of gal, but if it’s vanilla ice cream, a scoop of peanut butter with it. You’ve never tried it? You must!
