Laurel Creek Bike Ride

Horse and Buggy Road SignIt was another great summer weekend! I went on a camping and cycling trip with Jen and her parents to the Waterloo area. We stayed at Laurel Creek Conservation Area in Waterloo, and did a couple of day trips by bike from there.

I hadn't been to this part of Ontario in many years, and I think I forgot how beautiful the countryside is. Perfect weather (maybe a little too warm), good company, fantastic scenery, and bicycles...what more could you ask for?

Plenty more details about the weekend in the photo galleries:
Friday: Laurel Creek Conservation Area
Saturday: Laurel Creek, St. Jacob's Market, YWCA Camp, etc.
Sunday: Riding around St. Jacob's Elora, etc.

Ice cream

That ice cream sure is neat. Did you put ice in there too? How do you make it frozen without freezer? I like ice cream but cannot eat much of it because I am lactose not tolerant. Ice cream and other milk things really bugger up my intestines.

Li-Dong, You put the ice c

Li-Dong,

You put the ice cream ingredients (milk, cream, sugar, whatever flavours you want) into a small coffee can. Tape it closed tightly. Put that inside of a large coffee can, and pack it full of ice and rock salt. Tape that up very tightly too.

Then shake it, or kick it around for a while until it's no longer liquid in the middle..probably about 15-20 minutes.

Just make sure you tape up both cans very tightly so it doesn't get buggered up.

Works very nicely with freshly picked Ontario strawberries.
