Wow, that looks so pristine! Almost I-might-actually-be-willing-to-eat-it pristine!

Did your dogs get lost in it?

Well, it was only like two inches deep 8,u
And it melted not much later.
It never fails - when it snows, the sun has to come out immediately and melt it.

Have any of y'all ever had snow cream? It's sort or like ice cream but made with snow. It's delicious.

No, can't say as I have. You use the snow as substitute for the cream? Wait, then it wouldn't be snow-cream. Um, instead of the eggs, maybe? Thin it out more?

Are you just using snow packed around it instead of ice? Salt the snow and use it for the coolant?

Why would you salt the snow that's how they keep the ice from forming from snow melt

When you make ice cream, you have the ice-cream ingredients mixed in a container which is surrounded by salted ice, to lower the temperature further while you are forming the ice cream.

I'm curious how you make ice cream with snow....

but if you're substituting the snow for the ice, you'd still salt it, so that the temperature would stay lower and as the snow melted it would mix with the ice salt and instead of refreezing in odd positions and forming an insulating layer it would stay supercold liquid (salted water has a lower freezing point) and let you continue making ice cream.

I'm just speculating, how you would potentially use snow to make ice cream. I'm still trying to figure it out.
After all, snow is frozen water, and you don't actually use water in the ice cream ingredients....

I helped my grandpa make ice cream once.
It was strawberry and I don't remember what all we did.

I've had some kind of white cream on sno-cones.
I'm sure it was called snow cream or something, but I don't know if it's the same since it was summer and no snow.

Buying snow would be awesome.
My bestie lives in Delaware and she gets a lot of snow.
I ask her to send some and she says I'd get a soggy envelope.
