We have ten 1L cartons of milk that are best before January 8, 2008 (plus one more of the same, still unopened, in the refrigerator). That gives us a bit more than a carton of milk to consume a day. I need ideas.

I've done the first three. Anyone have any suggestions for what we can do with the rest?

Fun things to do with milk

  1. Drink it.
  2. Drink it?
  3. Drink it!
  4. milkshake
  5. smoothie
  6. cereal
  7. pudding
  8. cheese
  9. ice cream
  10. pour it into someone's shoes
  11. bathe in it
  12. bake
  13. make yoghurt
  14. feed stray cats
  15. chocolate milk
  16. pancakes
  17. biscuits
  18. waffles
  19. muffins
  20. cakes
  21. brownies
  22. egg nog
  23. try to put it back into the cow
  24. hot chocolate
  25. repeat Galileo's experiment
  26. donate
  27. special milk!facial mask
  28. milk shampoo/conditioner
  29. art!form (e.g. mix with paint or crushed crayons)
  30. wash hands or feet (I dipped my finger into the last drop of milk in the glass. That counts!)
  31. swimming pool
  32. oreos with milk (Going to assume that this is anything + milk -- I tried a slice of honeycake in milk. Yum!)
  33. milky way (I see stars!)
  34. freight express to [livejournal.com profile] hanase
  35. snort it up your nose


(This is why I shouldn't delete icons. I had one perfect for this post from Kawaii Not -- "I can't tell if I'm milk that's gone bad D: or yoghurt that $something :D" -- but I deleted it a few weeks ago)

Update
Aha! Thanks to the lovely [livejournal.com profile] chasethestars, I have the icon I needed. Also, I've begun adding your suggestions to the entry, and I'm bolding the stuff that I've done.

Hmm. I just found this: http://crafts.kaboose.com/ice-cream-in-a-bag.html

I have no idea how it will work.

just saw this on tv last christmas eve... but the show said place the bag with the mixture in a salad spinner(?) filled with ice and salt... spin it and after several minutes(probably more than 15...), the milk-cream mixture will become ice cream... looks really good on tv... ^__^ you should try it out.

seems like a good source for some exercise too haha!

That looks like the same one, except I think we always just used regular salt, and I could never decide whether it was really necessary. :-)

I think any kind of salt is okay (but it seems a waste to use regular/fine salt or iodized salt because it's been processed more). Sugar should work as well, I think? The key is to lower the freezing point of water so that the ice will melt more quickly. Without the salt, the ice cream making process probably would not work.

I did try it earlier! It seemed to work okay but I guess I didn't shake it hard/long enough because there were lumps, but it was still mostly liquid by the time I got bored and decided to eat it *g*
