"I too have been stumped on how to make my own ice. I would wait until Lake Michigan froze over then go with my ice-cutter and bring back enough to last a week or so, but the darn cubes were so big they didn't fit in the glass. Now, thanks to you I am able to do this much more efficiently."

"FANTABULOUS! With the exception of a straight-out alfredo sauce, this is the best pasta sauce I have ever had. The flavors just dance around in your mouth, aren't too overpowering, but let you know they are there."
