Basil Ice Cream
My basil plants did really well this year, so I decided to
finish off my summer desserts project with Basil Ice Cream. I checked out 4 different recipes before
deciding on the one from the New York
Times Cooking page. The link to the recipe
is below. It is a very straightforward
recipe, basil, sugar, milk, cream, salt, and egg yolks. And it was excellent. By substituting Mint leaves for Basil, you
can make a mint ice cream as well.

Cape May Dining
We went to Cape May, New Jersey, for a week earlier in
September and had a great meal at Godmother’s Restaurant. We have been going to Cape May for several years
now and had passed the restaurant many times but never dined there. This year we decided to go, and were really
glad we did. The food was excellent. Our main dishes were Rigatoni with Blackened
Broccoli, Crab Ravioli in a Lemon Cream Sauce, and a Baked Salmon. And for dessert there was Chocolate Gelato
with a Biscotti. Our only regret is that
we had not gone there sooner.
Besides the great meal, another highlight of the trip was
watching the full moon rise over the Atlantic from the beach, pictured above.
