I enjoyed reading your ice cream comments – have you tried making Thomas Jefferson’s recipe? It tastes more like an egg custard – tons of egg yokes! I used to work at Monticello and we made it with our summer campers – most of them hated it since it was too rich for their taste buds. Mind you the adults all remember growing up with whole mike and love it!

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed them. I have yet to try TJ’s recipe.
I don’t know what recipe Susan used in her demonstration,
but it wasn’t his (there were no eggs). I’ve read the ones
in “Dining at Monticello.” They DO sound delicious! I will
definitely have to make one. BTW I visited Monticello
about 10 years ago. Loved it! Beautiful site.

Hi Carolina,
This is a great site!
I know where to go if I ever do not have an appetite.
God Bless!
Thanks, Morgan! Enjoyed talking to you the other day. Good luck with your move. And let me know if you ever, by some serendipitous twist of fate, get a copy of “our” movie! Cheers!
