March of the (frozen) tools

Continuing with March of the Tools month, this one really has changed life around here:

We never buy ice cream now. My husband is a master at flavors like Chocolate Truffle (yes, it is as good as it sounds), made in this little contraption. This, too, was purchased because of Alton Brown and an episode of "Good Eats." The interior of the ice cream maker is a removable bowl that we store in the freezer until ready to use. And there you go: ice cream in 20 minutes.

Bring on the custard, baby.
