I forgot just how freaking incredible this thread was. I went on a hunt to see if Dana had put her ice cream flavor in, and she had. This is long before they were sparks in each other's eyes, right? It made me cry. See, I couldn't go to the wedding, so I have been doing all that wedding crying right here.

quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You have no permanent favorite but try every new premium flavor from Ben & Jerry's as soon as they come out. This tells me you are a seeker and that you try to find the good in every person you come in contact with. You view life as an exercise or a test as well and you believe that to pass the test you have to get beyond the superficial appearances and try to know everyone and everything. In some, this would be a distinct liability as it is such an impossible undertaking. But read on... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The one scoop per serving indicates your internal sense of discipline. In some sense, it is saying that you are never going to get TOO involved with any one person -- that there is so much you have to give to so many. But on the other hand it is indicative of your overarching sense of what is proper and best for all. You aren't trying to be in charge, you just want to know what's going on and help out where you can. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the real clincher -- the secret to your success where others fail -- baby spoonfuls. You can be so good at learning and knowing others because you know your own limitations and you work at the pace that you know you can maintain for the long haul. It is possible for a man to outrun a horse, in a long distance race. And that's you -- never missing an opportunity to learn a little more. Taking the time to do it right and get it right. You love your work and savor it. Even when there's nothing left to do for the day, you are thinking it over and planning for later.

It's all about the ice cream. The time they had their first "non-date" (with Ryuko and Aunt Eem), they had ice cream. Some weird flavor, too. dkw told me, but I forget.
(When she was telling me about this, when she came out to L.A. close to two years ago, I remember picking up on the fact that she liked Bob and thinking it was too bad that would never work out . . . )

They went to Sebastian Joe's, and at least one of them had the roasted garlic ice cream. It is so good...

I don't even know how to respond to that. (roasted garlic ice cream) I'm vaguely curious, but simultaneously twisted up with "blech."

Roasted garlic is very sweet, actually. I could imagine it, and might try it, but I doubt I would like it.

I've never heard of nor thought of a roasted garlic ice cream but I love roasted garlic so I'm gonna be on the lookout from now on. If I run into any I'll post with my take.
*crosses fingers that I will actually find this flavor someday*

See, y'all just have to come to Minneapolis, and we'll go to Sebastian Joe's. It's the site of one of Dana & Bob's first non-dates, it's practically a historic location.

Hmmmmm. I think Izzy's is kosher, but I don't think they have roasted garlic. I could make you some... my ice cream maker has never been used for anything but ice cream, is kashering (is that the word) it something that you could do, or would I have to get a rabbi to do it?

OK, that is it. I am now determined to make ice cream in one of my two Donvier ice cream makers, and send the other one to Christy and Tom.

Kashering is the correct word, and the process does not require a rabbi. However, plastics (according to most) cannot be kashered, and most ice cream makers are largely plastic. Also, any little cracks, nooks, etc. that cannot be thoroughly cleaned cannot be kashered.
I used to have an ice cream maker . . . don't think I do any more, though.

I am glad I did, Dragon, even though it took forever. I must say,m though, that Bob was way off on this assessment of Dana. or so he hopes. ha ha.

My ice cream maker is metal inside, but the paddle is plastic. So that wouldn't work. I'll have to convince Izzy's to make Garlic ice cream, then!

Drat. I was sure I had read that one of our local ice cream places was kosher. Obviously, I don't pay quite as much attention to such things as you do. Posts: 7954 | Registered: Mar 2004
