We're on day two of snow days and this morning I thought it would be fun to make some snow ice cream with the kids.  We have over a foot of snow so we went out on the deck to collect some.

You'll want a big bowl full of snow!  The rest of the recipe is pretty simple.

It doesn't look that great, but it tastes good!  I never realized how hard it is to photograph snow (and snow ice cream).

Any particular things you do on snow days?

    We played alot of Wii, scooped(yes we say scoop) snow, and ate alot of little snacks. All in all it was a great 2 days! We tried this recipe a few yrs ago. But I had forgot how it went. Thanks!!

    This is the same recipe my mother used when we were growing up, except we added food color. We have tried all colors, but we decided that yellow was not acceptable. Now , I do this for my kiddos and they think it is sooooo cool and their friends have never heard of it! Thought I should share. Mel
