Ice Cream

So about a month ago, I moved into a new house and adopted a couple of new house mates. One of them works at a local ice cream shop, G&D's. This shop ought to have an international reputation, it's so good.

One of the perks of working at this shop is that they always make a touch more ice cream than they need, and give it away to their staff. One of the perks of sharing a house with someone who works at this shop is that he brings home a lot of free ice cream.



At one point, we had more than 16 litres of ice cream in our freezer. That's nearly enough ice cream to bathe in. I didn't bathe in it. Instead, I dreamed up other, tidier and more delicious ways to basically waste the ice cream.

The most indulgent result was scooping it into coffee. Mmmmmm, toffee-chocolate ice cream coffee:



The perfect accompaniment to Saturday morning, my couch, and BBC1 for James Martin's cooking show.
