I remember this well! Also remember the crank ice cream churn. I remember I didn't mind at all having sore arms turning the crank. Ice Cream is my favorite dessert of all time. I make it even in the winter. Thanks for posting this one.

Used to do this when I was a kid,too, only we used a syrup bucket with a handle and turned it back and forth inside a washtub filled with ice and salt! Do you go as far back as me, Chet ?? lol !
