Doubt very much if she was sleep walking. She had her coat on and was on a mission to find the place that sold the slushies. The house door was evidently unlocked and she just walked out!

There was another news piece a few weeks ago where an even younger child made its way across city streets to a convenience store ready to buy something. Kids do that quite frequently, slip out in the middle of the night.

People that sleep walk will get dress do odd things . My daughter had a friend that got up in the middle of night while still asleep and got ready for school , her parents heard her and got her in the driveway. She was sound
asleep . I am glad the girl was returned home safely .

No, to get the slushie effect, the liquid base must be within a certain "brix" range. This refers to the amount of sugars and other content in the base, which act as an "antifreeze" to stop it freezing solid. The brix level must be between about 12% and 14% to both produce a high quality slush and to not damage the machine in the making.

Slushies have been around for much longer than you might think.

The Chinese are generally credited for creating flavoured iced drinks, possibly as early as 3000 BC - that's 5000 years ago!

It is recorded that Alexander the Great loved slushies, over 2300 years ago! He had trenches filled with snow so that he and his soldiers could have a supply of slush to mix with fruity flavours, whenever they fancied - makes you wonder if they had a name for a Brain Freeze!

The Roman Emperor Nero is recorded as having served honey and wine slushies made with snow which was passed in buckets hand to hand, by runners all the way from the mountains to his banquet hall.

The famous Italian explorer and trader, Marco Polo, is said to have brought new recipes of fruit-flavoured, slushies back to Italy from his travels in China, in the fourteenth century. Certainly, Italians became the undisputed masters of the art of the slushie - or granita, as it is usually called there. Indeed, our machines, which we believe to be the best slushie machines, are made in Italy!

We would guess that the pleasures of slurping slushies goes back even further than these instances. We reckon humans possibly figured out that snow mixed with squashed fruit not only beautifully preserved the fruitiness, but also made a thrilling drink - maybe even before they tried burning things to eat!
