Random Questions; Random Days



Here are some interesting facts I found about ice-cream. They came from the book called "Dates with the Greats" by Susan Ohanian. May 13, 1777 was the first public advertisement of ice cream. Confectioner Philip Lenzi announces in the New York Gazette that his ice cream "may be had almost every day." During the summer of 1790 George Washington runs up an ice cream bill of about $200 - very roughly the equivalent of about $6000 in today's money. Thomas Jefferson also likes ice cream a lot. He creates his own 18-step recipe for making it. Dolley Madison is the first First Lady to serve ice cream at White House state dinners. That leads us to today's questions: What is your favorite kind of ice cream?



First, ice cream is one of my favorite desserts and second, I can't limit it to one kind. I like chocolate, strawberry, pineapple sherbert, french vanilla, vanilla bean, rocy road, prailines and cream, vanilla fudge, I could on!
