Have a ball making homemade ice cream! Is there anything better?

Also comes in a pint-sized version.

Summer's coming and I'm picking one of these up. I have this crazy family fantasy of my folks, my daughter and I standing in a circle and tossing this around while standing on the beach. Since the large size takes up to 35 minutes to set we'll offset a few of the calories, too. The best part of this master plan, however, involves my daughter asking if we can get some ice cream and being able to reply "Sure, go throw some around."
