Notes: I remember going to my Uncle John & Aunt Velma Wolf's in the summertime for Homemade Ice Cream. What a treat that was! They lived on a pig farm, so it smelled a little bit different there than on our farm, but it didn't ruin our appetite for ice cream. I remember playing outside with cousin Shirley until the ice cream was ready to eat.
When David and Karen were growing up we made ice cream in our garage. I can remember the two of them running around with bare feet asking Dad how soon it would be ready. There was poor Dad cranking and cranking. Some people had recipes for "no cooking," but I always used the "cooked" recipe, which of course took more time. We thought it was worth all of the bother, though, and have always remembered. Years later we bought an electric freezer which was much easier.
