Just because I haven't posted any weird ice cream recipies in quite some time.
1 quart ice cream, softened (lime or coconut works best)
2 avocadoes, pitted and peeled
Zest and juice of 2 limes
2 t. sugar
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup sweetened flake coconut
1 or 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded or not (depending on how much of a kick you’re going for)
While the ice cream is softening up, mince the peppers in the food processor with the lime juice and zest. Process well until the mixture is paste-like. Add the sugar, coconut, and avocadoes, and continue processing until the mixture is well-combined. Spoon the ice cream into a freezable container, and stir in the coconut milk (this will help to soften it up even more). Work in the avocado mixture, stirring until the ice cream turns a lovely shade of avocado green and seems evenly mixed. Freeze for a few hours or up to a week. Serve it to your friends.

The Five Love Languages
2. One book that you’ve read more than once.

3. One book you’d want on a desert island.
The Napoleon of Notting Hill

Much Ado About Nothing, Twelfth Night
5. One book that made you cry.
The Return of the King
6. One book that you wish had been written.

And I suppose I shall tag Thursday, Mary Liz, Mattias, and Emily.

Quotation Meme
Thursday tagged me to do this meme, so here goes.
The Directions:Go here, to the random quotes generator, and look through random quotes until you find five that you think:
a) reflect who you are
OR
b) what you believe.
The Results:
1) "It is impossible to go through life without trust: that is to be imprisoned in the worst cell of all, oneself." ~Graham Greene
2) "Moral excellence comes about as a result of habit. We become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts." ~ Aristotle
3) "There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes." ~Doctor Who
4) "I believe in getting into hot water, it keeps you clean" ~G.K. Chesterton
5) "Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value." ~ Albert Einstein
