Gelato by happypat

Gelato

I have never known the difference between our ice cream & the more exotic sounding gelato, is there any difference?

Three good things:
1. I am pretty much recovered from my food poisoning bout, yawning a lot tonight & a bit weak but better.
2. A lovely Poinsetta from my daughter in law Lesley.
3. So many good wishes from everyone re illness, thank you all so much!
So glad you are on the mend Pat -- now all you need is a good rest to let the body recover !!
Nice scene in B/W , But sorry I have no clue as to the difference between Ice cream and Gelato , except one is in Italian !!

That was a nasty event and how come Harry wasn't affected? He didn't eat the ham? Its generally chicken that does that - campylobacter! Good to eat that ice-cream now!

...and also -- gelato has less fat in the base than ice-cream and less air churned into it during the freezing process.

@maggiemae no he didn't eat the ham Maggie! He won't eat anything over a couple of days old whereas I am a little devil & very blasé about eating stuff up! He had beans on toast that day! 😇

Great shot. I like your composition and B&W finish.

Nice shot. I think gelato has less fat and more sugar than ordinary ice cream.

Gelato's more expensive. :) Actually, gelato is churned slower making it denser than ice cream, and it has more milk than cream.
So glad you are feeling better, Pat!! What a whopping case of food poisoning you had! It's no wonder you're feeling weak and sleepy. Get plenty of rest so that you'll be in fighting form for the holidays! xx

So glad you're feeling better Pat. You had a really bad attack. Mind what you're eating over Christmas!

@thistle found out it was a bug Joyce, Harry has had a milder version last night!

@peggysirk A pesky bug Peggy!

Thank goodness it seems to be a quick one...but it certainly packed a whallop with you! Hoping Harry recovers in short order...and without the trauma to his face!!!
