Triple Vanilla Ice Cream
I think vanilla gets kind of a bum rap in at least some parts of popular culture.* Vanilla is an incredibly subtle and complex flavor if you're just paying attention to it (and the best ways to use it). So I like to take it out and run it around the block every now and then to see what kinds of changes I can ring on the basic theme.
As a result, this recipe, in a number of variants, is a favorite around here. I’ve referred to it now and then online, but realized (when I went looking, per a request) that I’d never actually posted a full recipe. So here it is.
It’s based on the “sweet cream base #1” recipe from the Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book (which we picked up when it first came out, and I’m really pleased to be able to tell you is still in print. There’s also a Kindle edition, which is a nice plus).
The recipe for this goes as follows:
2 cups / 475ml heavy or whipping cream
1 cup / 240ml milk
2 large eggs
3/4 cup / 170g sugar
Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended. Pour in the cream and milk and whisk to blend. (Makes one quart.)
If (as may be the case) you aren’t comfortable with using uncooked eggs, or just don’t want them in there at all, there is also Sweet Cream Base #2:
2 cups / 475ml heavy or whipping cream
2/3 cup / 160ml half and half
3/4 cup / 170g sugar
Pour the cream into a mixing bowl. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time; then continue whisking until completely blended. Pour in the half and half and whisk until completely blended. Makes one quart.
Now, as for the three vanillas: Generally speaking, my idea, when I started doing this, was to use three vanillas from different regions, or at the very least, three vanillas made using different styles of preservation/processing… the general idea being that, if it all worked out, the flavor of the finished product would present a sort of spectrum of vanilla flavors instead of one flat background effect.
The three vanillas I routinely try to use tend to go this way:
(a) An alcoholic-based vanilla extract. I routinely use Nielsen-Massey, though frankly there are a lot of far cheaper ones that will do as well, considering that a number of vanillas are involved in this procedure.
(b) A different form of vanilla, ideally of a different origin, and usually in a paste form. (I like this one, which we get from our local grocery.)
(c) At least one fresh vanilla bean. (Meaning, unprocessed except by the usual drying and curing that’s part of preparing the seed pod of the vanilla orchid.)
(You can grow them, did you know? But apparently they require very specific conditions and are not easy to work with. See this article for details. There’s also a useful article here with a lot of basic background on vanilla and its harvesting and preparation. Yet another of those products that one tends to take for granted, while at the production end it’s amazingly labor-intensive…)
(d) And sometimes I might go for a fourth vanilla, if I had another form around.. such as, for example, a vanilla powder.
Or: I make a pretty fair vanilla whiskey. Recipe: Slice open a vanilla pod. Scrape out the seeds in the usual manner. Chop up the pod. Put all of this in a little bottle—maybe about 100ml, tops—and add whiskey. …Generally I wouldn’t use too smokey a whiskey for this: mostly I use one of the more innocuous Irish whiskeys like Powers or Paddy’s.
Leave this alone in a cupboard for at least a month or so. This is what mine looks like at the moment (and you should have seen how dark it was before I topped it up just now!).
As you use it, you add more vanilla beans and top it up with more whiskey. (And there’s no reason this wouldn’t work with other alcohols. Vodka occurs immediately, or Polish pure spirit, as something that would more or less stay out of the way of the flavor of the vanilla. All the same, now I’m thinking about vanilla gin… Hmm.)
…Anyway! A reminder from the food chemistry department as regards alcohol in ice cream: if you add more than about a quarter cup of alcohol (60ml, give or take) to a given quart of ice cream mix, it will function as antifreeze and you’re likely to wind up with a very sweet and lovely slushie, but not much more. So don’t get carried away. Do your math as you put the vanillas together.
I have little experience with non-machine-based ice cream making, so if you have a recipe for a no-machine version that you like, just make a very plain one and add a couple or a few of your chosen vanillas to it. If you’ve got a machine, the procedure is simple: to your basic mixture, add the vanillas you prefer, whisk them in, and freeze as usual. If vanilla powder is one of your chosen ingredients, I’d mix about half of it into the initial mixture, and sprinkle in the rest of it close to the end of the freezing period, as the ice cream’s firming up. Over the next 48-72 hours in the freezer (assuming you like to leave your ice cream alone for a bit to let it develop its flavor), the dry vanilla’s flavor will intensify.
… And that’s it! Noting of course that adding fruit to this mixture (either in the ice cream, or on top) works really well. Or maybe just grate some chocolate on top, as I did for the pic above.
Enjoy!
(Disclosure: We’re in the Amazon Associates program, so if you use the Amazon link(s) above and buy something with it, we get a wee tiny commission. Just so you know.)
*I mean, I'd sooner have "vanilla sex" with somebody who loves me than "woowoo wild insane multiple-flavor sex" with anybody else. (shrug) Your mileage may indeed vary. But I like mine.

Hi All! Sorry I have been absent lately. To be honest fandom things have not been the same with JLS leaving, and it’s been tough! But this post has been in my drafts for a while. I work in the industry and see a lot of posts and questions about ratings and what they mean so I thought I would post some info from my perspective. Some of this is oversimplified, and I’ll likely post in pieces. Feel free to ask any questions!
TV ratings, what they mean and what about Chicago PD? Part 1
Why are ratings important?
They provide info on viewership to networks, advertisers and the media and how people are consuming content put out by the networks.
How are ratings calculated?
Ratings are calculated via statistical sampling. There is a core group of people that form a sample audience, and their habits are tracked and then that data is extrapolated to draw conclusions over a larger audience (this is a gross oversimplification), but net net this is how it works. There are about 130MM homes with TVs in the US. The sample is about 20k. This is done by Nielsen. It’s an imperfect science, but it’s the science we’ve got.
What about streaming?
The bane of an advertisers existence is the lack of accurate cross platform measurement. Streaming provides more exact data, but there is still a lack of technology that provides accurate measurement of reach and frequency across platforms. There have been advancements. This is a post for another day.
Why does this even matter?
Advertisers pay to air commercials during shows. They select where to air based in part on ratings and the estimates of the number of households or people they can reach for a certain cost and how many times they can reach them. Advertisers need to figure out how much of their advertising and promotion money goes into linear TV advertising and connected TV advertising vs. other media like digital (social media advertising, online video and other digital advertising, search, PR, etc).
Networks also use ratings data to determine if a show should be kept or cancelled. The amount of advertising dollars that a network can make off of a show is a critical element in their profitability calculation. If a show has more viewers, it has more eyeballs and those eyeballs are worth money to advertisers and consequently, networks. Advertisers and media agencies calculate based on a combination of data sources the return on investment generated from these different media channels and that determines the amount of money they will invest.
When do they invest?
Linear and Connected TV can be purchased in the upfront season and on scatter-outside the upfront. The upfront is a period of time where advertisers sign year-long deals with networks (at a discount, theoretically) in exchange for a specified amount of ad inventory in the form of impressions. The upfront is also refers to the presentations that happen during this time by the networks to advertisers. This used to be a huge fancy boondoggle with presentations and star talent, but has changed since covid. Advertising is a supply demand marketplace and there is usually only 16 minutes of ads per one hour show. Ratings, quality of viewership, shifts to streaming and digital platforms all play a role in ad costs and inflation or deflation. Plus, ROIs vs other platforms.
Is traditional TV doomed because of streaming? Do the viewers who watch on peacock the next day count?
This is a great debate but for many household brands looking to get the word out, traditional TV still drives a ton of reach within valuable demos. Streaming can for sure augment this reach. The cost of advertising on streaming is greater on a per impression basis but it has proven to be profitable so that’s good for advertisers
Analytics have expanded to include more than immediate and fast national ratings (same day viewing), and include +3 and +7 day viewing which will take into account first time views on streaming devices. There is also data that will tell advertisers the percent of people actually watching commercials during this timeframe. For instance a lot of people subscribed to ad-free streaming during covid but that has come down a lot since the economy is in crisis and people’s dollars are not going as far.
What do all of the ratings points mean? What about number of viewers? What’s a rating point? A GRP? An impression? What is share? And have ratings really tanked since JLS left? Will the show be cancelled because of low ratings? Who decides this and how? How do individual actor contracts play into all of this (if at all)? How do networks really get ad money? And more… stay tuned for part 2 and 3!

13/100.
So anyway. Here's my above-the-fridge cupboard in its well-hung glory.
I used this type of hardware, three of them along the top end of the cupboard. It's called a toggle bolt.
Alright. My next priority is Christmas gifts for my kids. If I'm going to order anything online I have to do it soon. Tick-tock tick-tock! The thing is, in order to stretch my budget, I want to use points I earn from doing surveys. I have about $100 worth of points with this one survey company called Web Perspectives. I've been doing surveys off and on for years, and I tried a whole bunch of different ones out when I first discovered you can earn a bit here and there doing them. Somehow Web Perspectives is the only one I do these days. Not sure if that means they are better than others, but there must be a reason why I still use them and not others.
There are a couple of ways I can cash-in the points. Two options are Amazon e-gift cards and Indigo e-gift cards. You just trade your points for the cards, then login in to Amazon/Indigo and apply the cards to your account. I'm thinking about getting my kids a couple of books and need to check whether I should get them from Amazon or Indigo. The Indigo cards cost 1000 points for a $10 gift card, whereas Amazon costs 1200 for $10. So you get a little more bang for your buck (er, point) with Indigo. However, you obviously have more things you can spend the money on with Amazon. You also have to factor in shipping costs. Also, I think Indigo changed something recently where you can no longer add a gift card amount to use for later, you have to apply it at checkout. With Amazon, you can squirrel away gift card amounts to use whenever you want. I currently have $70 of credit on Amazon, plus another $20 I haven't added yet.
Another detail about this process with Web Perspectives is that you can only redeem points for a maximum of two gift cards per day. So even though I have about $100 worth of points, I can't redeem them all at once, I can only redeem about $20 per day. So you need to plan ahead a little bit to use them.
The other company I use for points is called Nielsen Homescan. You get a scanner or, more recently, just download an app, and you scan the stuff you buy and they collect the data for companies that pay them for market research. In return you earn points that you can redeem for stuff. They used to only have a catalogue of actual stuff, which was kind of limiting because maybe you're not interested in any of the stuff in the catalogue (for instance, I've redeemed points for movie tickets, pillow cases, and a camping lantern in the past). And the stuff was really "expensive" (you needed a shit-ton of points to just be able to get the most inexpensive things). But now they also have an Amazon gift card option! I think this is fairly recent.
So that's the background info on my foray into online surveys. You won't get rich doing it but it's an easy way to earn a couple of bucks when you have 5 or 10 minutes to kill. It's great for when you have to be physically but not mentally present for something. For example, waiting for an appointment or a bus or a client, or when you have a couple of minutes gap between meetings or classes that you would otherwise be spending being bored out of your skull, or when you've taken the kids to the playground or the dog to the dog park and are just sitting there while they play and you just need to look up from time to time to make sure everyone is ok. Everyone has these sorts of "in between other things" times, why not earn some money while you're doing nothing anyway?
Alright, so here's my updated to-do list:
Gmail account sign in.
Buy new charger for Pixel phone.
Transfer Web Perspectives Amazon e-gift card to Amazon account.
Fill out eye surgery forms. ✓
Take photos and email back to clinic. ✓
Check previous clinic's paperwork to see which lens they recommended.
Make appointment at bank.
Print out bank documents.
No printer service at library--do I need to print it? Download to thumb drive and think about next steps.
Compare cost of books Indigo vs Amazon.
Recurring:
Alternate heat and ice on foot.
Do hamstring stretches.
Reference: https://www.sports-injury-physio.com/post/top-5-stretches-plantar-fasciitis
Roll out knots in leg muscle.
Do Sun Salutation x5 - 0/5
Take inhaler

Survey Panel Review: Pinecone Research
URL: pineconeresearch.com
Member Since: 2013
Annual Earnings: $72
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
Non-Biased Review [generated by Bing AI Chat]
Pinecone Research is a survey site that offers cash rewards to users for sharing their opinions on various products and services. According to a review by Survey Cool, Pinecone Research is one of the best online survey panels, with quality surveys and strong payouts. The site has a simple user interface and is owned by Nielsen, a reputable market research company. Pinecone Research is exclusive and requires an invite to sign up. The site offers cash payments and gift cards for popular retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. The gift cards are delivered digitally, so you can use them online or in-store.
The site has received mixed reviews from users. Some users have praised the platform for its consistency in survey questions and quality of surveys, while others have reported issues with getting rewards in the past. Pinecone Research is a legitimate program and not a scam. The overall verdict is that Pinecone Research is a good survey site with strong payouts and quality surveys
Pay Me For Surveys Review
I have been a member of Pinecone for a number of years. I was fortunate to get an invite link and accepted for sign up. Before they were acquired by Nielsen, the panel was better, in my opinion. There were more surveys and they used to pay higher per survey and had more product tests. Today they still pay better than average at $3 per survey, but product tests are few and far between, plus the number of survey invites is less. Used to be about 4 or 5 per month, now more like 1 or 2 invites per month. I qualify for most surveys, but the number of disqualifications has increased over the years as well. I cash out with Amazon gift codes, but they do have other gift cards and virtual visa cards.
Recommendation
A few years ago I would have given Pinecone a strong recommendation and 4 stars. Now I would say they are still worth being a member, if you can get an invite. The survey disqualification rate is still below average, and the pay is higher per survey. So I would recommend adding the panel as another steady, but low volume income earner.

From Board Games to Boredom
What was once considered a niche hobby has now become a multi-billion-dollar industry that continues to thrive. What industry is this you ask? Gaming.
One of the reasons why online gaming has become so popular is because of its ability to bring people together. Whether it's playing with friends or joining a community of like-minded individuals, online gaming provides a sense of belonging that can be hard to find in the real world. Plus, with the ability to connect with people from all over the world, players can learn about different cultures and ways of life.
Another reason why online gaming has become so popular is because of its accessibility. With so many different platforms and games to choose from, players of all ages and skill levels can find something that they enjoy. Plus, with the rise of mobile gaming, players can now take their favorite games with them wherever they go.
________
Of course, it's not just about having fun. Online gaming has also become a competitive sport, with professional players and teams competing for huge prizes. Esports tournaments now fill stadiums and arenas, with millions of viewers tuning in to watch their favorite players compete.
All of this goes back to the definition of playing a game - using the means allowed by its rules in order to achieve a specific state. Whether it's playing for fun or competing at the highest level, online gaming provides a space for people to come together and test their skills in a way that is fun and engaging.
_______
So the next time someone asks you why you spend so much time playing video games, just remember that you're part of a growing community that is redefining what it means to play. As Suits said, "This activity is possible because the rules are accepted by the participants." (Suits 1978, p.41) And with millions of participants around the world, it's clear that online gaming is here to stay.
Signing out, @mydigitalf00tprint

Asian countries Pacific Consumers Ready to Spend Their Solution of Recession
A latest Nielsen survey shows that Asia Pacific cycles consumers are prepared to spend their way out involving recession. Renewed readiness to spend since 2010 progresses is found in Cina, Brazil, India, Singapore and Hong Kong. Currency markets investments in addition to increased savings happen to be a results of consumers getting self-assured in the particular market, including spending on luxury items for example vacations, clothes plus entertainment.
One MasterCard survey portrayed that entertaining and dining is where Asian Pacific consumers may put their money in the subsequent half a year, showing serious resilience in typically the face of typically the global recession.
Buyer confidence has surged in the first quarter of the year 2010, returning consumers in order to positive territory. Within the last 6 months, the particular majority of customer sentiment in Asia pacific has moved their gears by recession into recuperation. In this weather of economy, the particular sentiment is related to actual sales. Nationwide, for occasion, the confidence associated with consumers rose 12 points in the third quarter associated with last year.
Strengthening monetary conditions resulted throughout the Reserve Standard bank of Australia to be able to increase its prices, becoming the first country to carry out this. This ended in increased sales associated with 2% in equally August and September of 2009 within FMCG or quick moving consumer merchandise. Since Nielsen followed the recession inside January 2009, there is a buzz that this is currently at its lowest ranges.
Asia Pacific investing has always been a key indication of confidence in business and has manufactured a rebound quicker than analysts have expected. Across a lot of Asian Pacific marketplaces, sales of FMCG has turned a significant increase as Asian kitchenware consumers are beginning to purchase items which often are discretionary after an any period of time of spending within the parameters regarding a budget.
Inside October of this year, sixty-six percent of worldwide consumers stated that their economic climate was in downturn compared to seventy-seven percent in Apr of 2009. Intended for many consumers throughout Asia Pacific, even so, the recession offers become an issue from the past. 87% of Chinese say that their nation is out regarding the recession although 60% of Hong Kong and Australian citizens say the exact same. Half of Indians believe that economic downturn is finished in their particular country too.
Regarding to another survey conducted by the particular MasterCard Worldwide Listing of Consumer Purchasing Priorities, the leading spending priorities regarding Asia Pacific customers are 49% about fashion and equipment 36% on well being and fitness, 34% on their kids private tuition, 34% on extra curricular activities and 34% at the same time on client electronics.
In Hong Kong, thirty percent less consumers state that their country is in a recession. In the particular latest survey, twenty five two percent of Honk Kong consumers said that these are in an economic downturn when compared to sixty % in June associated with 2009.
