Sheryll:

If you're ever up this way some summer, I'll make you raspberry with dark chocolate truffle chunks. Should be as easy as mixing in the chocolate once the raspberry ice cream starts to set. 

I'm all for experimenting with ice cream flavours. I ran across one last summer that I've sworn to Andy that I'll make this year, even though I suspect he's not going even taste it - candied bacon ice cream. I imagine I'll get to eat that one all by myself. 

The belated birthday dinner for when Amanda is here will be cooked by an old family friend and her husband. They always attend our family birthdays, especially when they find out I'm the one cooking. Last year Lynn asked who cooks for *my* birthdays. When she found out that I don't normally get a family birthday dinner, her and her husband said they'd do up a big bash for my 50th. I'm looking forward to it, her husband is an amazing cook!

Sheryll, hoping it warms up a bit today for the BBQ!
