Potluck Dinner

Our freezer is not working anymore. So today for dinner we had to eat a lot of what was in there. Following is the menu from our potluck meal:

• 2 lean cuisine dinners
• sweet potato fries
• mini spring rolls
• mini quiches
• pancakes
• turkey stuffing
• fruit smoothies (2 flavors!)
• very soft ice cream sandwiches
• assorted varieties of vegetables

The fruit smoothies were the most popular item! Tomorrow we will need to eat a lot of bread (3 different flavors), make banana bread and have sausage biscuits for breakfast. I really need to call the repair man to get him out to fix it.

Calling for Great Ice Cream Recipes

I bought my husband a ice cream maker for our anniversary. We would love some great ice cream recipes to try out. So far we have only made strawberry icecream.

No substitutions allowed!

Eliza was talking about great treats on her blog and it got me thinking about some of the things I love. And I was wondering if there is anyone like me who refuses to compromise on something food related.

One of the things that I have to have is real butter on my air popped popcorn. Because margarine has water ( and lowfat margarine has even more water) it just makes the popcorn soggy. It is a guilty pleasure, but since I don't eat butter on anything else I've justified it to myself.

Anyone else??
