Homemade butter - first attempt

2 cups heavy cream

Put in blender until thick. Add salt as desired.

I think I could have made it thicker but all I have is a Nutribullet and could not blend it for very long before there was a burning smell. Hope my Nutribullet is not broke! Anyways... Looks like sour cream because it does not have a yellow tint to it but it did not taste too bad. May seem a bit bland if you are use to a lot of flavor.

Homemade ice cream - first attempt

Snow, in small bowl

1 capful vanilla extract

1/3 cup heavy cream

2 big tablespoons sugar

Gather clean snow in bowl. Mix in a measuring cup: heavy cream, sugar and vanilla. Mix with wisk in measuring cup. Pour into bowl over the snow and mix with spoon. Serve.

I want to try the chocolate one next! I need to look up how much chocolate I need though. Hope you enjoy!

Formal table setting


Quick smoothie

I just put:

A handful of carrots

Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

1 Apple (cut, with skin)

Grapefruit juice (freshly squeezed)

And 1 banana

Oh and I added a bit of water...

In my NutriBullet and made a smoothie. I was not sure how it would turn out, but I can barely taste the grapefruit and it tastes very sweet! Love it!

Give it a try!
