Welcome to my Blog where good food, good wine and good company is a must! After all, you only live once so you should enjoy life to the fullest. For me, enjoying life is eating delicious food. Of course, there are other things that are just as important like having family, friends, good relationships, etc. But this is about FOOD! Nom Nom Nom. This does not mean it has to be the most expensive meal as sometimes even the most simplest meals can be the most delicious. And also, since I am allergic to shellfish, I would probably not be able to order the most expensive meal on the menu (which tends to be seafood). Does this limit me? Perhaps. It just gives me more room to enjoy all the other foods out there. Thank you for stopping by and leave a comment or any suggestions or requests as I would love to get to know my readers out there. “Cooking is like making love, you do it well, or you do not do it at all”

I scream, We all scream.... For Ice-Cream

I scream, we all scream... For Ice-cream...

Who out there does not love ice-cream? And with so many varieties to choose from, we sure have come a long way from those 3 simple flavours - vanilla, chocolate and strawberry.


With the technology these days, there are a few ice-cream machines around where you can have home made ice-cream in as little as 20 minutes. And not only can you make ice-cream but you can make sorbet, gelati or even daiquiris or pina coladas...


I have to admit though that I am now a proud owner of an ice-cream machine. It is definitely easier to use the machine than to place it in the freezer and check it every few hours to keep mixing it to prevent it from getting that melted and then put back in the freezer taste. Don't you just hate when you buy ice-cream from the supermarket and its on special... Score! But there was a reason why it was on special as it melted, maybe due to transit, and then placed in their freezer.


But for those that do not have an ice-cream machine, here is a simple delicious recipe that does not require you to keep mixing it every few hours. You can just pour it straight into the tin and pop it into the freezer.


Double Dollop of cream - about 320mls
1 x can of Caramel filling (which you can get in a can)


Mix these two ingredients in a mix master (or you can use a handheld) until smooth and blended well together and then place in a baking tin and cover with aluminum foil and place in the freezer for approx 6 hours...




End Result - yummy caramel ice-cream...
