Milkshakes

In complete humility I share with you all that I made some darn good peach milkshakes tonight! However, I could not always say that. The road to my milkshake making success has not always been smooth and creamy. There have been sharp and gritty experiences along the way. I guess the most important thing I have learned is that never, under any circumstance, stir the milkshake with a utencil (wooden or other) while the blender is still running. After I chopped off about a quarter of one of mom's wooden spoons, and had to pick wood splinters out of my entire milkshake I decided to never do such a thing again. From there it has only been learning how much milk and fruit or other flavorings to add to make the perfect glass of fantasy-like goodness. I am still perfecting my skills and techniques, but progress has been made (much to the satisfaction of my mother, my milkshake consumers, and myself)! To be completely honest though, I need to make an honorable mention of the ice cream for being the most perfect ingredient ever and covering over a multitude of wrongs. :)
