Ice cream time
For my birthday Megumi got me a BH-941 cordless ice-creamer. The thing runs on batteries that are supposed to be good for about 25 batches of ice cream. You put in the milk and cream and fruit and sugar and whatnot, close it up, press the button, and stick the whole thing in the freezer for three hours or so.
Last night we made our first batch. Since Megumi is still watching what she eats (no eggs, no dairy, not much sugar) we played with a recipe from some health-food cookbook. Soy milk and black sesame paste and a bit of maple syrup for sweetness. It turned out slightly off-balance—too much goma turned the mix a deep shade of gray—but it was still tasty. Very cold and creamy. And dark gray. We’ll be working out the kinks in the recipe as these hot days continue.

Web 2.0 in full effect
All right, it looks like we can close up the Internet now that we’ve reached its evolutionary apex. Have a look at MizPee.

This isn’t something I went out looking for on Google; it turned up on this site, which is your window into the wondrous world of Web 2.0 in all its glory. There are some winners out there, I’m telling you.
