My husband came equipped with an ancient ice cream maker when we got married, and that was QUITE some time ago. I am not sure why I have kept it all these years, considering I only recall us using it once. By now it probably has broken parts. I don't even remember if it is electric. All of which is to say I like the idea of a new one!!!
Wow! My husband didn't come with an ice cream making accessory! You are so lucky! LOL!
You should totally get yourself a new ice cream maker, summer is coming and since you are going to be taking it easier than previous years, I can most definitely envision you chilling on the porch with some healthy ice cream, taking in a sunset or two.
