Deep Fried Ice Cream

1 pint ice cream, any flavor
1 loaf sliced white bread
6 to 8 cups canola oil, for frying
1/2 cup sugar 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Place a plate or sheet pan in the freezer and let it chill for at least 1 hour or overnight. Using a large ice cream scoop, make balls of ice cream and place them on the sheet pan then return them to the freezer. Cut the crusts off the sliced bread and using about 2 slices per ice cream ball, form the bread around the ice cream using your hands to pack it like a snow ball. Once it's completely covered return it to the freezer. In a medium saucepan, heat 3 inches of canola oil to 365 degrees F. Drop the covered ice cream balls, one at a time, into the hot oil and fry, turning occasionally so they color evenly, until golden brown on all sides. Remove from oil and briefly drain on paper towels. Stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Coat fried ice cream in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve immediately.

that's one smart kitty!

Worry more about your character than your reputation. Character is what you are, reputation merely what others think you are.
--- John Wooden

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
--- John Lennon

The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty.
--- Winston Churchill

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
--- Thomas Edison

I knew I would look back on my tears and laugh, but I never thought I would look back on my laughs and cry.

When you are born, you are crying and everyone around you is smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are smiling and everyone around you is crying.

more Pooh quotes

If you live to be 100, I want to live to be 100 minus one day, so I never have to live without you.
----------------------------------------------------------------- Winnie the Pooh

The Piglet was sitting on the ground at the door of his house blowing happily at a dandelion, and wondering whether it would be this year, next year, sometime or never. He had just discovered that it would be never, and was trying to remember what "it" was, and hoping it wasn't anything nice, when Pooh came up.

"Hush!" said Christopher Robin turning round to Pooh, "we're just coming to a Dangerous Place." "Hush!" said Pooh turning round quickly to Piglet. "Hush!" said Kanga to Owl, while Roo said "Hush!" several times to himself very quietly. "Hush!" said Owl to Eeyore. "Hush!" said Eeyore in a terrible voice to all Rabbit's friends-and-relations, and "Hush!" they said hastily to each other all down the line, until it got to the last one of all. And the last and smallest friend-and-relation was so upset to find that the whole Expotition was saying "Hush!" to him, that he buried himself head downwards in a crack in the ground, and stayed there for two days until the danger was over, and then went home in a great hurry, and lived quietly with his aunt ever-afterwards. His name was Alexander Beetle.

"Going on an Expotition?" said Pooh eagerly. "I don't think I've ever been on one of those. Where are we going to on this Expotition?" "Expedition, silly old Bear. It's got an 'x' in it." "Oh!" said Pooh. "I know." But he didn't really. "We're going to discover the North Pole." "Oh!" said Pooh again. "What is the North Pole?" he asked. "It's just a thing you discover," said Christopher Robin carelessly, not being quite sure himself. "Oh! I see," said Pooh. "Are bears any good at discovering it?" "Of course they are. And Rabbit and Kanga and all of you. It's an Expedition. That's what an Expedition means. A long line of everybody. You'd better tell the others to get ready, while I see if my gun's all right. And we must all bring Provisions." "Bring what?" "Things to eat." "Oh!" said Pooh happily. "I thought you said Provisions. I'll go and tell them." And he stumped off
