A recipe past down generation after generation

As a kid, I always looked forward to a good fresh snow fall to make my favorite treat, snow ice cream! My mom used to always make it with us, so on a snowy day like yesterday, I was excited to share the tradition. I guess I will share the secret recipe for all those who dare try it.


1. You start out with a fresh scoop off the top of fluffy powder.


2. Add a little Milk, vanilla and sugar

3. You have some delicious ice cream and some happy kids. We added strawberry Quick for a little extra flavor.
After dinner, we all bundled up and went out into the night to make a tall friend for our front lawn. Doesn't he look friendly?

I remember Grandma made that for us once when we were little and it snowed in Albq. I don't think I've had it since.

Mail us some too. Ember asks every day, "Mom, when it snows on Haleakala, will you take me there?"
