When I was making brown sugar peach ice cream earlier this afternoon, I envisioned the title of this post as "The Day Ice Cream Saved Me From Boredom," but then I texted my friend Jeff and asked him if I could swing by and deliver some 'awesome' (which, in this case, was ice cream) and the whole focus of the post shifted. (Either way, the ice cream recipe is at the bottom of this post.) Delivering awesome to your friends can be done in many ways. I chose to do it with homemade ice cream. The parameters of such deliveries are as follows:

• It has to be awesome and enjoyable.
  
• It has to be spontaneous.
  
• You must bring everything with you so that your friends don't have to do anything or supply anything in order to take part in the awesome.

Here are some pics:

Lovely white peaches

The two main flavors in the ice cream - mashed up peaches and brown sugar

Tiny heart-shaped (or bum-shaped, depending on which way you look at it) spoons, colored bowls, a mini ice cream scooper, and orange napkins, and a basket to put them all in.

Happy friends.

Brown Sugar Peach Ice Cream

I adapted the recipe after looking at a bunch of fruit ice cream recipes online. I used white peaches because of they have a delicate flavor that I love, but you can also use regular ones.

Ingredients
5 ripe medium white peaches
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup whole milk
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Tools
Ice cream maker

Peel the peaches and remove the pits. Then mash them up with a food processor or just put them in a bowl and mash them up with your hands or some sort of tool that mashes. The end result should be a little chunkier than a puree. Add the brown sugar and blend thoroughly. Add the milk, cream, and vanilla, and mix well. Pour into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's directions.
