Homemade Half n' Half

We used to buy the 64 ounce cartons weekly from Walmart.  Although the savings from making it at home isn’t huge ($1.19), it’s another item I get to cross off my grocery list.  Also there is the added convenience of being able to whip up a batch instead of running to the store, since we always have heavy cream on hand for making other dairy products.  It's just too bad we don’t have a milk cow YET... J
