Description

When life gets tough, true friends ask for help.


Christina Tosi is that kind of friend. She's someone I can trust with anything and someone I can cry with. She also happens to be a world-class pastry chef, a genius dessert maker, and the founder and CEO of Milk Bar. 


We reflect on the art of asking for help and how sometimes all we need from a true friend is 8 minutes of their time.


This...is A Bit of Optimism.

And, by the way, I wanted to share Christina's recipe for making an Ice Cream Loaf. It's magic. 


You will need:


2 cups (1 pint) of softened ice cream


1 cup of self-rising flour


1 egg



  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a loaf pan and set aside.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the melty ice cream, self-rising flour, and egg. Do not overmix.

  3. Pour the batter into loaf pan.

  4. Bake for 45 minutes or until toothpick clean. 


Enjoy.
