This was in our local paper today, it just struck me as funny, you don't usually read about something like this

Last summer I bought a really nice electric ice cream maker and after discovering that making it with eggs and cream was so expensive I decided to try those dry mixes like you buy in Walmart, you add milk and pop it in the maker and there you go, well, it was the end of the summer, they were marked down to a dime a piece and I bought about fourty of them, it turns out that they do not make very good ice cream and I was wondering if anyone had any desserty type ideas I could use the rest of them up on, I have no one to give them to and I won't throw them out, so come on you guys, you all sound like experienced and inventive cooks on this site, of which I am not......Lend me hand, lol.........and thank you

Anyone else up doing their taxes?? I am sitting here, taking a hot tea break, it's almost one in the morning and I am doing my stinking taxes, I hate myself, I always wait till the last minute....NY taxes are the worst, they want you to remember every stinking thing you bought online, won at bingo, etc, etc, and pay tax on it, they claim they have ways of checking up on it, wish I knew for sure if that was true or not, every darn year I do this, I must like punishment.......

Happy Easter all my fellow amishcook readers, I just want to wish you all a happy, healthy and very blessed easter..........
