great pictures! my own little sous chef is just 3 1/2 and loves to cook, too. I love your idea of menu planning with the kid. I tried this once a while back, with not a whole lot of success. I think he suggested pizza with pepperoni and cucumbers, neither of which he actually likes to eat. I probably should have just gone ahead and made it, though. Who knows, maybe he and I would discover the new taste sensation?

belated congrats on 24/24/24! if you dissolve the sugar into the buttermilk/milk/solution, it’ll decrease the chance of crystals forming around the sugars. lowering the ratio of milk and increasing the ratio of heavy cream will give smoother/more buttery ice cream. buttermilk is still lower in fact than heavy cream. it’s also more acidic, which should, in turn, cause less lemon use to added.

I’m so thrilled for you Jenn and you know what I love best of all? I love that The Kid eats all of these different kinds of fruits and veggies. Getting a kid in the kitchen and involved is definitely the best way to get them exposed to a variety of things they wouldn’t normally want to try. Go You!!!

Good eats! Everything looks good. The broccoli salad and ice cream salad scream summer. Love reading all these 24 posts. Nice job.

I love this idea! It is very important to expose kids to fresh, REAL food – I’m so glad you did this. Any leftover ice cream sandwiches?
