Homemade Ice Cream By Hand in 6 Easy Steps!

I know that it is December and that you're probably not in the mood for ice cream, but I'm putting a post on here about making your own ice cream. ( You can also save this recipe for summer!)  All you need is the following. ( You are the ice cream machine). I am demonstrating this with hot chocolate mix, but you can use whatever flavor you want.
. 1 gallon bag ( Ziploc)
. 1 half gallon bag ( Ziploc)
. 3 cups crushed ice
. 1/3 cup rock salt ( the kind you use for regular homemade ice cream)
. 1 packet of hot chocolate powder packet ( or whatever flavored powder is your priority)
. 1/2 cup Half and Half milk ( you can find them in cafes)
. 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
That's it! So easy, right? So now, to make it.
Step 1#. First, dump your hot chocolate packet into a half gallon bag. ( Use it all!) This is the time to add in 1 tablespoon sugar.
Step 2#. Secondly, add your 1/2 cup Half and Half into the half gallon bag.
Step 3#. Set aside your half gallon bag, and grab your gallon bag! Pour your 3 cups of crushed ice into it. Then, pour your 1/3 cup rock salt in the bag, and zip it up.
Step 4#. So now, you take your half gallon bag and put it inside your gallon bag. Notice that the
" inside" word is in bold because this is a very important step.
Step 5#. After putting your chocolate milk bag into the gallon bag filled with ice and rock salt, play the song  "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift and jump up and down, vigorously shaking your bag until your chocolate milk mixture feels tough and hard. This will feel like ice cream in a bag!
( Bingo, that's exactly what it is!)
Step 6#. Eat your ice cream! This is essential to the process of making ice cream, and plus, who doesn't want to eat it?

Lastly, you could also put it in the freezer for later. It will keep like normal ice cream, maybe if you transfer it into a cup with a lid, or container. Thank you for reading this post and enjoy your ice cream!!!

LAKE CHABOT, WHERE THE MOUNTAIN LIONS ROAM!

On the 7th and 8th of April 2018, my family went on a vacation to a camping spot we all know and love. Anthony Chabot is a beautiful eucalyptus forest encased by gorgeous rolling green hills. We call the campground: Lake Chabot, because there is a amazing green lake that laps the land below the campground. Yet, the lake is diagnosed with a sort of lethal allergy that prohibits swimming. Too bad, you might be thinking. But, its not that bad. There is hikes that loop about the campground, and being close to Tilden Little Farm, we went there and hiked a majestic hike called Sylvan Trail, (we suffered much gobs of mud from the rain) that led us to an stony overlook that covered all of San Francisco, the Golden Gate, and more! Now, you might know what to do when you see a mountain lion sashaying across your path in he wilderness. You make yourself as loud and big as possible (even if it includes taking your shirt off) and throwing items at it until it runs away. This probably won...
