Manage My Household

In this day and age when money is tight, I think about the gifts I can give that keep on giving throughout the year.

My husband loves ice cream, chocolate ice cream to be exact (well, anything chocolate!). Instead of getting him a gift that he uses once then it goes into the drawer, one year I bought him an ice cream maker. At least once a month we now enjoy wonderful ice cream and sorbet creations!

It used to be that making ice cream was difficult and time consuming. With the newer machines, you simply mix the ingredients and push “go”! 20 minutes later you have ice cream that lifts the soul!

There are numerous ice cream makers on the market, but I still like the Cuisinart 1-1/2-Quart Automatic Ice Cream Maker which is a reasonable price.

Considering that it’s a gift that keeps on giving throughout the year, it’s well worth it!
