Coffee and Ice Cream

In the mail today....
this book: "Coffee, A Connoisseur's Companion" by Claudia Roden

So far, I've only had time to flip through it a few times, but I like what I see. Especially the sound of this recipe...

Coffee Ice Cream Soda

Stir 2/3 cup of fresh cream into 2 cups of chilled, strong, sweetened coffee in a jug. Pour into tall glasses, only half filling them. Add scoops of ice cream in each glass and fill with ice-cold soda water.

Reminds me of a Root Beer float.

I think we'll give it a try this weekend. Normally, in October ice cream and cold drinks wouldn't be sounding so good to me, but we're having a burst of warm weather around here. It feels like spring is coming instead of winter. I'm sure it won't last much longer!

I'm so tired I could fall asleep right here.

ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
