A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)

I make homemade ice cream. I have made lacrosse free ice cream for people several times. You need to find lactose free whipping cream and lactose free table cream but once you do you're golden.
500 ml 35% whipping cream
1 L 10% table cream
1 1/2 c granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
(Sorry I'm Canadian, that's how we measure things.)
Dissolve the sugar in the table cream. (It's hard to dissolve that much sugar in whipping cream.) Once the sugar is dissolved add the whipping cream and vanilla and stir to mix.
That's your base.
Put it in your ice cream machine and make it into ice cream. Put it in a container and freeze it hard.
If you like milkshakes throw a bunch of the ice cream you made into a blender, add lactose free milk until it mixes nicely, then add an once of your favourite bourbon. (Or don't. I fucking love bourbon milkshakes)
Enjoy.
Man, I remember back in my day these came with a whole life long journey leading to acquiring the recipe. Now they just give them away!
