I have been searching for Grandma Joy's homemade ice cream recipe for a long time now.  It took a lot of searching by several family members and I am excited to announce that I think we have finally located it!!

I found this hand written recipe (in one of the girls' handwriting)   I believe it is the one Mom used to use.  Let me know if this is the right one.

Thanks, Marie.  It sounds likely, but I don’t know how we would know for sure.  I will send it on to Mary too, so she won’t need to keep looking for pasteurized eggs.  

The email was then forwarded by Max to Mary Bryan.
