All in a day's work

Yesterday we thought it was our anniversary. It wasn't that we (or at least I...don't know about Andy) thought our anniversary was the 18th, it was that we (or at least I) thought yesterday was the 19th. In celebration (and also to get me to quit whinging about wanting ice cream), Andy decided to make ice cream. Yay! He got the goop mixed up and chilled, and the bowl for the machine had been in the freezer all night. All was ready to go...but then...we couldn't find the plastic top that holds the bowl and the blade and the engine-y part all together. We looked everywhere. I called my mom to see if she had any ideas since she unpacked most of the kitchen stuff. No luck.I was all for having ice cream soup, but Andy was determined. Drawing on one of his emerging freakish abilities (other freakish abilities include catching things [which, admittedly doesn't sound too freakish, but we're talking catching with no warning and without really seeing the object] and flipping off people with his toes), Andy used a strip of pantyhose to MacGyver the ice cream machine into working order.
It was successful! (Mostly.) No picture of ice cream because we were too busy eating it, and ice cream makes a pretty dull picture unless properly adorned, which we were not going to do because we were too busy eating the ice cream.
