We recently welcomed a new gnome, Lurleen Lumpkin Who Sits on a Pumpkin, to The Abode. And to properly welcome her, we served up some amazing ice cream WITH PUMPKIN AND VODKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kamikaze and I were put in charge of watching the ice cream maker. I did not object to this assignment whatsoever because of what was actually brewing inside that glorious machine.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup PUMPKIN (scooped out of a real pumpkin)
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup firmly baked packed brown sugar
5 egg yolks
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp salt
pinch of nutmeg
1 cup VODKA
Waiting for that blasted machine to finish up was like torture. I wanted to dive into that spinny thing so badly. But alas, I had some restraint.
But in the end, oh was it ever worth it! Drunk off ice cream! What an amazing feeling it is!
We were so drunk that the resident monkeys even convinced us to share it them. The fattest one took two bowls, which pissed some gnomes off. They got over it though. Drunk monkeys are actually pretty hilarious…who knew.
So yes….welcome Lurleen! If your company brings us more boozy ice cream, then we are destined to be the best of friends!
Yours in ice cream headaches & hangovers,
Phillip The Gnome
Hello, this is Fatty the Monkey, hooray! I really liked iced cream night with gnomes!! I don’t remember much from that night except that I ate some ice cream, danced with some gnomes, finger painted, and rolled over and fell asleep on my face. We should do this again with more monkeys, hooray! Also if anyone has seen my monkey tutu, send me a note!
