Cinnamon Ice Cream.....a first for me!

I just finished making my first ever batch of cinnamon ice cream.  I was inspired by a video of the Green Smoothie Girl and her friend Desiree making it on you tube.  I had purchased ice cream made with coconut milk and agave from the store but I had never attempted to make it.  They made it look easy and so I decided to give it a go.

Almond Milk....straight from almonds!

I didn't have any almond milk and so I made it.  That was a first for me too and again it was so easy!  I learned how by watching, yep, another video by the Green Smoothie Girl.  Yeah for the Green Smoothie Girl.....she's been teaching me a lot lately.

I used a Cuisinart Frozen Yogurt and Ice Cream Maker

Mmmmm the Cinnamon is key!

The finished product!  So yummy!
Loved the Cinnamon Ice Cream......loved learning how to make almond and coconut milk!  I think I will go and have one more little spoonful before bed!  Try it, you might like it too!

Amanda's Mission Call

Image
We waited 10 long weeks for Amanda's mission call to come!  She turned in her papers on December 16th and her call didn't arrive until February 20th.  That is an unusually long time to be waiting.  All around her friends and friends of friends were getting calls returned in as little as 1-3 weeks.  We were all starting to get discouraged.  Due to the new lower missionary age requirement we had been hearing that the MTC was being full to over flowing and we were beginning to worry that she wouldn't head out for her mission until late summer.  Not really what she planned on!  The last few weeks were especially difficult and I could tell Amanda was beginning to question and wonder if she had made the right decision and why in the world this was taking so long. It was so crazy! In the mean time Amanda and I had planned a trip to Seattle to visit Grandma Martenson and celebrate her 88th birthday!  I wanted Amanda to be able to see Grandma before she ...

Girl's Spa Day Out Gone Very Wrong!

Image
A few weeks ago I and a few of my cute co-workers decided to go for a "Girl's Spa Day"! We booked "Bodywraps" and talked about it for weeks, how fun it would be and how many inches we would lose. When they asked if we all wanted to be in the same room we replied sure..it would be more fun that way. We were pumped! The big day arrives and we show up at the appointed hour....little did we know. We each had our own personal body wrapper who escorted us into one big room with four beds and said, "Okay, take off your clothes!" We looked at each other, looked at them and said, "Ummmm, we are not that kind of friends." Hailey didn't mind as she was the only one with regular unmentionables. The rest of us had to don the "paper underwear" that they keep for just such occasions....oh my, it was like wearing a paper thong! We begged for robes...an essential part of any spa experience I have ever had...and were brought some towels ...
