Ice cream turned out delicious. Very, very creamy. A single batch turned out more than I excpeted as well, at least double the amount for a carton of ice cream from the store at similar cost, so cost-effective as well. I had a serious moment of confusion at the store buying the heavy cream, thinking that there might have been a difference between "heavy cream" and "heavy whipping cream"(there is not).

I can easily make another batch, or try and use the rest of the cream(bought twice as much as I needed) for something else.

You can use heavy cream to make noodles alfredo. Add butter, garlic, parmesan, romano and asiago cheeses, salt and pepper. Pour it over noodles and add meat (preferably steak) and you have the best dinner.

This needs to be the first thing they fix when genetic engineering gets advanced enough. No human being should be denied the joys of cheese unwillingly.

To twist the knife in the wound, there are people like me who are lactose-tolerant and have little use of it because they don't like cheese....

You should give your lactose tolerance to Sappho. Srsly, that's just mean.

Ok, offering a near-mint condition lactose-tolerance. Willing to trade for genes that prevent cat allergy or a crate of beer.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Just came into possession of some fresh chamomile flower heads.

I like chamomile tea, so how do I do this? Do you have to do anything differently when they're fresh? Do you need to dry them yourself? Is there any other use for them?

From my (somewhat limited) experience with making tea, it should be perfectly fine to dunk the fresh flowers into hot water without drying them first.

Ended up using them all in a batch of tea, steeped for 10 minutes. Smelled great, but had a bitter aftertaste I've never gotten with storebought tea.

The flowers came with about an inch of stem attached to each, and I did my best to pull them all off before steeping because I understand you're just supposed to use the flowers, but I couldn't get it all. Maybe the stems made it bitter? Ah well.

Is it the petals that give the flavour? If so, mybe use a knife and use petals like tea leaves.
