Automotive History Museum pt. 2

Kinda, sorta, in chronological order, yes? 40's and 50's... 

Automotive History Museum

Thanks to groupon, once again, we visited a seldom mentioned place right in the heart of Dallas, or, maybe the spleen of Dallas, depending on what angle you see it from; fact is, it's in Dallas' fair park near downtown and it hosts a fair amount of cars, the lighting could definitely be better if you plan on taking pictures, but hey, they LET YOU take pictures, most museums don't. Mais enfin, this is part 1 of, I don't know how many parts yet..  

We should bring back hood ornaments... really...

Strawberry Ice Cream [Recipes]

So, interested in making something really good, reeeelatively healthy* and easy to "cook" to boot? This recipe comes from an allrecipes entry that I found, usually ice creams may contain eggs, sort of like a really, really goopy frozen custard, it gives it nice unctuousness, but you know what? sometimes there aren't any eggs in the fridge, so one goes and looks for an egg-less recipe. And the convenience of not even having to fire up the stove, make the quasi-custard and then waiting for it to cool down before churning is definitely a plus.

The recipe

• 2 c. whole milk
• 2 c. heavy cream
• 2 1/2 c. frozen strawberries
• 1 c. sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp salt

And the procedure couldn't be more simple; blend everything in a blender then follow your ice cream maker's instructions. If, however, not everything fits in the blender, leave the cream out and mix with the rest after it's all blended.

*Ok, define healthy, at least on this ice cream you could pronounce all of the ingredients, on the store-bough not-so-much.

Entre que empiezo a escribir una explicación, y entre que pienso que porqué debería explicarlo... pues, lo explico al menos un poco. En un intento de ayudar más gente, voy a comenzar escribiendo en inglés, desgraciadamente hay cosas que se perderían en la traducción, claro, a excepción de los mêmes, esos como que no se traducen tan bien al español. No fue hasta hoy que hice el primer post en inglés que me di cuenta que no es tan fácil cambiar de idioma así como así; tooodas las etiuetas las voy a tener que poner dobles, idealmente debería regresarme a toooodos los 600 y tantos (si, si son tantos) posts y agregarle las etiquetas en inglés; naaah... pero lo que si veo viable es agregarle un botón de traducir para cada post. No pensé tener que hacer una estrategia de localización para el blog, pero.. there you have it...

Zilker Gardens Revisited [Austin, TX]

So, going back and seeing what I hadn't posted before I came across these lil' ol' flowers from the Zilker botanical garden in Austin.
