Pam, I didn't see Paula's show, but my mom use to make snow ice cream for me and my siblings. She would beat an egg or two with sugar and vanilla, then stir in a large bowl or two of fresh-fallen, deep snow. Nowadays, that would be seen as pretty risky business... what with the raw eggs and polluted snow. If you want to take that risk, you could use pasteurized eggs, which are more widely available all the time. Not much can be done about the snow, sad to say.

To add some nutrition, stir a cup or two of milk into the egg/sugar mixture. Lightly stir in the snow. Eat either version of the "ice cream" immediately. Don't try to store it.
