Kumquat Ice Cream
I've pretty much stopped eating sugar, so have cut way back on desserts and jams and stuff like that. But my office mate was telling me about a whiskey kumquat ice cream that she had on her honeymoon in Chile and I wanted to give it a whirl. This was my inspiration, but I thought the cooked kumquat aftertaste was overbearing, so basically doubled the dairy/fruit ratio. A solid addition to the sorbet chronicles.
1lb kumquats, sliced, so you can take out the seeds
1c raw sugar
pinch salt
1c good yogurt
2c cream, whipped
1T or so vanilla extract
cook kumquats and sugar for ~10 min till they are shiny, add salt, cool
stir in yogurt and vanilla
whip cream and fold in
put in a low wide pyrex dish
freeze, stickblend, freeze, etc

Gauchos del Mar
I'm digging these guys, the trips they are taking seem interesting and they wrote a good article for Surfer's Journal. Just bought their DVDs.

Santa Cruz Island, March 2015
Scorpion anchorage
We went out to SCI in March, to take down the Sauces weather station with Doug and look at the pine mortality due to the crazy drought we are in. It's so nice out there. We stayed an extra day to go to this special secret beach on the south shore. The road was crazy. Snorkled and beach combed. We got a flat on the way out + no air in the spare, walked some and then were rescued by one of the blue jay crew guys in Rust, the FJ-40. Here's a vid of bird song around the field station:
