A summer treat and the giveaway winner!

And our winner is...Charissa!  Congratulations!

(I'll get your contact info via facebook or email...)

Thanks to everyone who played in the giveaway!  Again, I think this little giveaway proved that I need to give something away people will actually use.  So keep on the look-out for the next giveaway.  Which I hope you'll find more intriguing.

Thank you, too, for letting me in on what some of your favorite summer treats are!  I whipped this little guy up the other night and it is going to be a family favorite for sure once it starts getting hot out! 

Doesn't it look just amazing?

It tastes fabulous, too!  All smooth and creamy and full-on vanilla flavor.  Oh yes, I found my ice cream substitute!

The best part for me?  There's not actual milk in it!

Almond Milk Ice Cream
serves 4 (1/2 cup servings)

• 2 cups Almond milk
• 3 T sugar
• 1 t vanilla (or almond?) extract
• good pinch of salt

-- Mix all ingredients together and freeze in a freezer-safe/airtight container.
-- When needed/wanted, remove from freezer and let sit 10 minutes on counter

I'm excited to try different combinations and toppings!!
