Here is the recipe (somewhat modified) my mother used. She had farm fresh eggs and plenty of cream and milk.
MOM FRY’S HOMEMADE ICE CREAM
Figure one egg (or equivalent amount of Egg Beaters) for each quart of ice cream you are making.
One half as many cups of sugar as the number of eggs 1-1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla or to taste; few drops of lemon extract; dash of salt.
Beat these ingredients together until light and fluffy. Add 1-1 1/2 boxes of instant pudding mix, any flavor desired and beat a little longer. Add 1 quart cream or half and half (more or less as desired) and beat again. (I have used liquid coffee creamer for lactose intolerant people.) Pour into ice cream canister and add enough whole milk to fill the can about 3/4 full. Freeze as directed.

CHOCOLATE MALT ICE CREAM
For 1 gallon of ice cream:
1 small pkg. of instant chocolate pudding mix
2 eggs or equivalent amoung of Egg Beaters
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups malted milk powder
1 cup whipping cream or liquid non-dairy coffee creamer
2 pints half and half
Whip the eggs; add sugar, cocoa. Add other ingredients alternately with malted milk powder. Add to freezer can and enough whole milk to fill the can 3/4 full. Freeze as directed.

This one and the one following were submitted by Brandon Lee. He writes:  “Here is a picture of one of the novelties of Kansas, wheat harvest.  Even though it came so early this year, it is still a staple of what defines ‘Summer.’  Picture is of Bill Lee Harvest 7 miles west of Clay Center.  Pictures taken by Phil Frigon, June 6, 2012. ”
