Ice Cream Forever

Because ice cream is so often the answer. Because sometimes I bake banana bread at 10pm. Because sometimes Tom Waits sings just the right song at just the right moment. Because it’s spring. Because summer is right around the corner. Because I bought new cowboy boots. Because I get to visit my BFF in June. Because my weekends are full of fun adventures these days. Because Stella beer cheers are what’s up. Because I only…

Honey & Cornbread Ice Cream

It was 70 degrees yesterday! I wore a dress with ankle boots and NO tights. This means that summer can happen in a state that won a snow record. A state that had snow multiple feet high for months. Consider this ice cream me raising the roof to summer beccause I want to serve it as a side dish to pulled pork sandwiches and right with some grilled everything. You see, this is honey ice…

Rhubarb Crumble Ice Cream

I like a little bit of consistency in life. I just like knowing there will always be blue cheese crumbles at the Whole Foods salad bar even if sometimes they only have fake chicken and no grated zucchini. I like to know that I’ve got party supplies in my desk at work in case I bring cookies in and need to put heart napkins out. I like to know that without a doubt ice cream…

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cereal Milk Ice Cream of My Dreams

Things are happening, you guys. So, I don’t know if you cool folks follow me on Instagram, but if you do then you know that Friday was full of last day donuts, lattes, and pizza. It’s transition time, and I’m excited about it! New year, new job, new (to me) couch, new shoes, new ice cream flavor. Let’s look ahead, ok? Speaking of ice cream, this flavor is totally my current favorite. Not only is…

Buttermilk Pancake Ice Cream

You’re the tops! You are the pumpkin marshmallows in my hot cocoa. You’re the gruyere on my Cuban sandwich. You’re the beer with my burger, the prosciutto on my pizza, the jam on my toast. The moral of the story is that you’re the pancakes on my ice cream sundae, ya know? P.S. That lovely cup is from Scout, one of my favorite shops! I kinda want to collect all the purple-y pink iridescent goodness.…

Dark Chocolate Oreo Blizzard Ice Cream

If I had a nickel for how every time I put a heart in a post, I’d have many nickels. I might be equally nickel-rich if applied to frozen chocolate. What can I say? I love love AND chocolate. Truth. This is that kind of chocolate ice cream that makes you swear there’s coffee in it, but there’s not. It’s also creamy and dreamy and filled with Oreos… I mean Joe-Joe’s. I’m the type of…

Maple Oatmeal Cookie Ice Cream

Sometimes my horoscope sounds like a card in Monopoly. It’s all “Your plumbing might have problems. Get an estimate!” Other times, Susan Miller is all, “October is HARD. Mid-November your life will begin to sparkle again.” I’m pushing my way through these early fall months with ice cream. My days can sparkle a little bit here and there based on bites of this stuff, ya know? And I’ve been wearing my frumpy fleece and walking…

Peach Pie Popsicles

The other day, while eating on the patio of a local brewery, I glanced over and saw a truck drive by with two shiba inu pups looking out at me; one white one and one tan one. I felt so lucky to get to see those cute little guys! I’m so glad I looked! I also feel lucky to live in a world where peaches exist. They’re just really pretty, and so tasty. And they…

Berry Breakfast Pops

It’s time to freeze up some breakfast smoothie business. Take a bite and then run an un-bitten one downstairs to your new neighbor. You see, even a gentleman can appreciate the ladylike looks of this pop. They’re a healthy snack! A breakfast! A friend-maker! Offer some to his dapper cat. Offer some to your bow-tie wearing dog. Live your life. It’s still summer. So we should really embrace it! Popsicles for breakfast and sandals and…

Watermelon Lemonade Ice Pops

When I picked my car up from an oil change, the fella said, “It’s August! Practically Christmas.” And I dyed a little inside. It may be the Sunday of the year, but you better believe that I’m holding on to summer. Like REALLY tightly. I’m going to ride my bike to brunch, make popsicles, eat hot dogs, and drink beer on patios for as long as possible. I’ll turn my oven on before my heat.…
