Georgina's Raw Journey

A friend gave me her old freezer - it is spotless and much better than most other freezers have ever had; certainly the best secondhand freezer.

I don't actually really need a freezer although BF will certainly get plenty of use out of it but I figure that life without ice-cream is pretty dull and even though winter is upon us it will be invaluable for making raw ice-creams - let's face it you can't buy them easily.
