So the Dave went golfin'.....

We slept in this morning... until all of 8:30 AM ! And it was GLORIOUS! There is nothing quite like awakening on your own to the sound of birds and your cat staring you in the face!

Yep, that's about what it looks like when Jethro decides, 'it's time to get up humans!'.... so I knew I had to take the dog to the vet (much better experience getting her there today), but other than that we had no plans as my mother prefers we come to Sparkle-city tomorrow afternoon.... so the Dave was OFF to play some golf. Now here I am at home with both dog and cat contemplating what to do with me today...

I need to do a lot of things for school... yeah, not gonna happen. The one thing I have decided on- outside of shoe shopping-- is ice cream!

One of the best gifts we received for our wedding was an Cuisinart ice cream maker like that crazy Ina Garten has. I think I have mentioned how much Dave loves ice cream and well, as a chubby girl, I can't say that I mind! So I will be making a ice cream today, however, what the Dave don't know, won't hurt him.... I cut some fat/calories but this a great version of the Oreo Shake from Cookout!

1 cup 2% milk, well chilled
3/4 cup Splenda
2 cups heavy cream, well chilled (just no getting around this!)
1-2 teaspoons vanilla

10-12 crushed Oreos!

1. Mix the milk and sugar together until Splenda is dissolved- use hand mixer.
2. Stir in cream and vanilla.
3. Turn machine on and pour in! Usually takes 25-30 minutes to set up.
4. At the 22 minute mark, add the Oreos!

I will let you know if it passed the Dave test!
