Who knew

Wow! 
What a crazy winter we have had here in Texas! 
Last week our public schools were closed for FOUR days! 
C.R.A.Z.Y.

Ice storms galore - 
and finally on the fourth day we got some snow!

And were able to play in this,
make this guy,
(nothing like a snowman with Chips Ahoy eyes and a carrot mohawk! -
Like Conner's new haircut?)

...
and make some snow ice cream.
 8 cups of clean snow
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
Mix milk and vanilla in snow and serve immediately.


This was a first for us -
 and let me tell you -

YUM!!!

And lots of smiles!!

And another ice/snow day today!

Musings from Kim K. said...

We've made snowcones and snow margaritas, but we've never attempted snow ice cream with all our lovely white stuff. Thanks for the inspiration!
