There were large spoonfuls of home made ice cream, made from a puree of fresh fruit, churned until frozen with egg whites, and served with aplomb. The choice is orange with cointreau, apple with brandy, plum with Rowan vodka, chocolate and rum, walnut with leatherwood honey, or just straight vanilla. I had one of each, or at least, a portion thereof."
