Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature.?In a small bowl, whisk the sugar, flour, eggs, buttermilk and vanilla. Slowly stir into grits. Roll out pastry to fit a 9-in. pie plate.

People who grew up in poverty like I did do not eat grits as an adult. We detest them.

We were so poor while growing up adults made coffee from grounds until they turn white. They then cooked them and served them to us as grits. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Hello guys,
I've got some time on my hands and I've been wanting to make some ice cream. What are your favorite recipes? In the past, I've made fresh strawberry, Nutella, cream cheese, vanilla, chocolate, coconut, and many others and I'm looking to try something different.
