[Gift] White Winter Treat
Winter was fun, Bao thought. It was the only time of the year that he could make ice cream out of snow, which he called snice cream. The trick was to find the snow with the perfect texture. He grabbed a large plastic bowl and headed out to harvest some snow, very excited for this year’s snice cream. It always took time to find the best snow, Bao thought. It was always worth it. He would start by finding a nice white patch of clean snow, and dipping his paw in it to sample the goodies. No, he thought, this was too hard. It’s practically iced over. He lugged his bowl to the next patch of snow, hoping it would be better than the last and meet standards.
After a nibble of this patch, he nodded. “I’m very lucky, this patch of snow is perfect for my snice cream.” He said.
He began filling up his bowl, careful to not dig too deep lest he start putting dirt in the bowl. Dirt, he thought, does not make for the best texture in snice cream. He had done that before, and was very disappointed with the outcome. Once the bowl was full, he grabbed the edge with one paw and started dragging it back to his home. He could carry it, but there would be a risk of dropping it. No, dragging the bowl behind him was best.
Once he arrived, he quickly got to work. Snow melts fast, especially in a home heated by a fireplace. It was cozy and essential to the experience to be snug while enjoying the final product, but it did cause a fuss when making it. He had the ingredients laid out in advance. Milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and a tad bit of sea salt. The steps from here on out were simple, add in all the ingredients and mix until uniform. Bao had already prepared a seat for himself to enjoy the snice cream once prepared. A recliner in front of the fireplace, with a fuzzy blanket waiting for him. Oh, this was divine.
Once his snice cream was ready, he took his bowl and scurried over to his chair. He laid the blanket on his lap and began to eat. Snice cream was always a treat, Bao thought. It made him thankful for winter to come, because it treated him well and filled his tummy with sweetness. That’s all a baobear needs, Bao thought.
Based on my childhood winters.
