Can we talk about ice cream makers for a sec, folks?
I own one. When I first bought it, I used it religiously every time I wanted to make a batch of homemade ice cream.

Then one day a very important and necessary piece went missing. 
After a good amount of online researching (and actual searching of every nook & cranny in my kitchen), I came to find out that it would just be cheaper to buy an entirely new ice cream maker than just purchase the missing part.

I put off buying a new ice cream maker.  And the one with a missing a part went to a back corner of my kitchen cabinet to gather dust.
No homemade ice cream was enjoyed in our home for months.  
(Cue the sad violin music.)

And then one day, I was done with it. I sought out homemade ice cream recipes from some of my favorite food bloggers- ones that did not require an ice cream maker, aka no churn ice creams.

From my first batch, I was hooked and never looked back. 
I even miraculously found the missing piece to the dusty ice cream maker a couple of months ago. But yet the ice cream maker still sits, gathering dust.
The moral of the story?
