Daver is having a terrible day at work. I got a text this morning, that despite eight hours of work, he feels like nothing has been accomplished. He said he just wanted to go home and check out for awhile.My solution: ice cream! Little does he know, Jeni Britton Bauer of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams just released a cookbook of over 100 of her most favorite flavors and accoutrement specially modified for home ice cream makers. That last part is the kicker, because anyone who has tried knows that more often than not, large batch ice cream recipes don't convert well for the at-home cook and you end up with either an icy gritty ice cream or a gooey sloppy mix that eventually turns into the former.
I can't wait to go home and give it to him. Unwarranted and completely unexpected surprises are the best. And now we will have something to turn to when he moans over how much he misses Jeni's.
