Banana Ice Cream

A few days before we returned to Zambia,

Ethan was outside with his Grandpa.

He (Ethan) walks into the house,

looks at me

pats my belly and says

I think we're having a boy!

I come home,

and my housekeeper has a big smile on her face

and tells me I've put on some weight.

YES people,

I enjoyed my summer vacation.

The ice cream,

the ice caps,

the Timbits.

Yes I've put on some weight.

But now I'm home

and it's time to start getting back in shape.

However,

I have a weakness.

Ice cream.

What's worse,

whenever Scott travels

I tend to feast on ice cream.

And he's now away.

A lot.

Now you all know

I know nothing about the kitchen.

I am the undomesticated goddess.

So when I heard you could 

freeze bananas, mash them up

and voila

have ice cream,

well I had to try it.

However,

I'm not about just the banana ice cream.

So I made two kinds

thanks to Real Mom Kitchen.

Strawberry banana ice cream

Ethan gave this one

two thumbs up!

One of my favourite ice creams

is Ben & Jerry's

Chunky Monkey.

My own Chunky Monkey

I forgot to pick up some walnuts

but will definitely add them next time.

I was sceptical 

that I would actually like it,

but OMG

it's fantastic.

So now I can have my ice cream

and loose weight too!
