I have the behemoth Ice-50BC sitting on my counter all summer. I love it but if anyone wants to hear each other speak while its on I have to downgrade to my old Ice-20. If one of them heads to the ice cream man in the sky this one is next for sure. I love making protein ice cream http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2008/08/protein-ice-cream.html great guilt free dessert on hot summer nights.

I love Torani Syrups. Vanilla, Caramel, Hazelnut and Irish Cream are the common coffee flavors. Be sure to have a sugar free option (they make those) I get these variety packs (gifts with coffee or protein - I do shakes a lot) http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2011/11/heads-up-sugar-free-torani-holiday-pack.html a few months ago they had a holiday assortment too. I like it better than creamers as they are often full of oils, fats, some are dairy, and they often require a fridge or ice. What Are the Best Syrup Flavors for Mixing with Coffee? Good Questions |

Paper bags are great, those $1 store lunch bags. I use them for all my veggies. Haven't had many spoil since I've done that. Just be sure to write (or let the whippersnappers draw the veggie picture) on the bag or they become mystery bags you have to keep opening. How to Store Mushrooms: Two Methods |

I've totally gotten into bentos (I use a laptop lunch box and for soupy stuff old school thermos) http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2011/08/my-bento-box-rocks.html I love it. It make me feel like a kid at recess :) They are a great way to make sure my meal is balanced (I do high protein, low carb for health reasons) but the best part is they encourage me to get out of the house/office and get fresh air, soak up some sunshine, Vit. D more too. Bag, Box, Bento: What Sort of Lunchbox Do You Have? |

Last month I was invaded by some aliens... uggh *shudder* it was hideous. The only thing that helped was what I'm calling a Chocolate Banana Lassi http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2011/01/alien-invasion.html soy milk, banana, yogurt, pudding mix, and I added almond meal. It was thicker than a shake, thinner than pudding. What Do You Eat To Recover From Food Poisoning? |

Nuke it for 25 seconds. I make soy milk protein ice creams and a few seconds in the microwave brings them back to scoopable. Also when making non "cream" ice creams if you add your ingredients to the cylinder as its moving helps not freeze up as much on the sides. How Do I Make Creamy, Low-Fat Frozen Yogurt at Home?
