Cherry Soft Serve Ice Cream with Ice Cream Depot

Cherry Soft Serve with Ice Cream Depot

We are having a blast trying out new recipes with our Ice Cream Depot machine. Tonight, I created a recipe for Cherry Soft Serve Ice Cream. I will admit, the strength of the cherry flavor is going to depend on the ripeness of the cherries you use. Since it's the middle of winter in Minnesota, I used canned tart cherries. This gave the soft serve a mild cherry flavor. This summer I plan on recreating the recipe and adjusting it to be used with fresh cherries from Michigan and see how it changes ...

The Word for 2018 is ……Boundaries

It's the new year and I'm really taking a look around me and looking for ways I can make my life better. My life less complicated. Less stressful. And the one thing that keeps popping up is a lack of boundaries.  I suck at setting them and holding them. From personal to professional I can see they are lacking everywhere. So this year is the year of setting boundaries! Setting boundaries is not easy, especially when you haven't been doing them or have let people walk all over the boundaries ...
