Awesome! I’m picky about strawberry too, but I’d be willing to give it another chance. I can’t justify the ownership of an ice cream maker yet though – it’s too much of a unitasker. Maybe if I can snag one at a garage sale?
This ice cream recipe sounds so good. Time to break out the ice cream maker!
