Jenn's Zen

I just did something I NEVER thought I could do.

I scooped ice cream out of the pint container and returned the remaining portion to the freezer. Wow. Really, I did.

First of all let me tell you that I rarely buy ice cream by the pint. It’s usually a fancy expensive, calorie-laden brand and I don’t feel like it’s worth it. Second, even though the container says 4 servings it’s really a one-time sit down with the spoon. Seriously, we all know this. If it gets opened, it’s all going to get eaten.

So, Mayfield pints were on sale 10/$10.00 (cheaper than what used to be the half-gallon). Would they have sold them to me for $1 each, I dunno. I bought 10. The calories per serving are 160. (Why I know this or care is a different post).

Friday night I ate a whole one. What can I say; I was home by myself catching up on Oprah and Brothers & Sisters. Saturday, I split one with Emily. And today I made the never before attempted, scoop out one serving (approx two scoops) and put the container back in the freezer. Step away from the freezer.

By the way, using the smallest bowl in the house helps!
