Ode to the Ice Cream Maker

I did consider dashing off a haiku or limerick or something in honor of my new ice cream maker, but the thrill didn't last much longer than trying to figure out if "Cuisinart" was three or four syllables and exploring a few quick rhymes (Heart? Start? Um... fart?)

Anyway, yeah, definitely liking the new ice cream maker. Especially since I ended up with all the leftover pears from my coworker's tree, and we have a few too many mangos after a recent trip to Costco. Until yesterday, we were mixing chocolate chips in with the pear sorbet, and today we swirled it with blueberry sorbet. In a few days -- in go the mangos.

In other earth-shattering news, that "Chavez Calls Bush 'The Devil'" headline was pretty exciting for a moment there. At least, until I figured out it was Hugo Chavez during a speech at the UN.
