Makes me feel better to know I’m not the only one who didn’t finish Molly’s book the first time. Actually, I’m on my third or fourth request for it, I never knew I was such a painfully slow reader! But it’s a great book, I may have to buy it for my Kindle and then I’d have the recipes forever.

Feel better soon, my friend. Pamper yourself.

Thanks for sharing the books you are reading. They look great, particularly the Awe-manac. I’ll have to check that out.

A lot of the recipes call for soy creamer but I used almond milk in this recipe. The soy creamer is used for it’s thicker consistency but you can get the same result by simmering almond milk to “evaporate” it. You can also use coconut milk and rice milk. I have a container of oat milk I’m thinking of trying. We don’t have any issues with soy, but we try to use it in moderation with everything else. I am definitely going to experiment with the ingredients. It’s not as rich and creamy, but very tasty. Oh, and there are lots of sorbet recipes I’m going to try too.

What do they use for the ice cream? we have a dairy-free kid, but try to avoid soy with him, too. It would be fun to make really good homemade ice cream for him!

Also, I’m sure Handmade Home is gorgeous and inspiring, like her last book, but do you feel like you’ve seen it all before? I haven’t read it yet, but that’s how I felt with her last one – like if you read crafty blogs, you’ve seen most or all of those projects before. This one is more intriguing to me, though.

I hope your shoulder is feeling better. I’ve read a couple of those books and I completely agree with your reviews! I need to get my hands on that last book-it looks like I would just love it!
