I don’t want to panic here, but I made ice cream this evening (blackberry, since you asked)–and, my wonderful six-dollar second-hand ice cream maker made some VERY PECULIAR NOISES while it was churning.
It made the ice cream just fine–I mean, WAY fine–but, I hope this wasn’t a sign of its imminent demise?
In other news: work. We are imposing a day off on ourselves tomorrow, though, and taking the ferry to the mainland to see the Hobbit movie, which we missed seeing because I had the plague when we got home from Christmas. Leisure time: it will feel weird. I’m looking forward to it.
