Have been keeping an eye on the Challenge this month although not strictly keeping all my receipts etc. We are pretty chuffed that due to fairly easy and common sense moneysaving we have put enough by to buy a new car! New to us that is, but still a nice little sports car. Money in the bank isn't making much even if you do shop around, so we have decided to get the car of our dreams (911) and enjoy it while we can and the kids fit in the back seat!
Another recipe for those who put them on if that's ok - Banana ice cream, for using up over-ripe bananas instead of banana cake/muffins etc!
Banana ice cream
1 cup double cream
1 cup milk
2 ripe bananas, mashed
2 oz caster sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence or half a vanilla pod
Make a quick custard with the milk and cream, beat in the egg and add vanilla and sugar. Heat on low until thickened, stirring constantly. Cool and add the mashed bananas. Freeze in an ice cream maker or in a shallow tray in the freezer, forking over to make sure no large ice crystals form.
I made this yesterday with my 4 year old, and got much respect for being able to make "ice cream - wow!" with my Aldi ice cream maker!

Downsizing, I've added your Banana Ice Cream recipe to the index... don't throw the string away. You always need string!
