what to do about instant summer:

make ice cream.

I made this sorbet the other day....mint lime sorbet, super good, although maybe next time I will only use 3/4 cup of sugar. And today I made up a maple ice cream recipe - it's firming in the freezer now. can't wait. This is "Philadelphia" style, without eggs.

maple ice cream:
combine the following in a bowl and then pour into ice cream maker with a pre-chilled mixing bowl. run the machine for 30 minutes then put in containers in the freezer.
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup grade B maple syrup
- bit of vanilla (scrape half a bean, or 1/2 tsp extract)
- 2 tsp fleur de sel or coarse salt
