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…
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…
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…
Here’s some honesty. I live alone, right? Just me and Elliot the pup. And the truth is, I pretty much never have leftover banana bread. I always WANT to have leftover banana bread for cubing and mixing into ice cream, baking as french toast sticks, or for sandwiching with Nutella and toasted coconut, but when I have banana bread I eat it for every meal. The day I was sorting out the details for this…
Well, I made that chipotle chicken chili again. You see, I’ve been the worst lunch-bringer during the workweek. So this week I’ll have lunch for days! And I also ensured that there’s post-chili ice cream. It’s just, you’re the dinner to my dessert, the cherry on top of my Monday, and cocoa puffs in my ice cream, ya know? I added a bit of Nutella and malt powder and it accentuates the cocoa puffs. I…
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…
The lovely Bev is having twins! Soon! So, let’s just say, that when I heard about this virtual baby shower, I knew I wanted in. You see, Bev is just lovely! And funny! And yay, she’s having twins! It’s pretty major! I was perusing recipes when I spotted these brownies on her site. I knew turning them into an ice cream would be just the thing to kick the massive chocolate cravings going on. I’m…
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.…
This is an exciting week! You see on Thursday evening I’m heading to San Francisco with two of my favorite people to see my BFF Katie and her husband Mark. I even get to meet Billy! I can’t even wait. So anyhow, my friend and her boo are going to stay at my place with Elliotto, soo I made this ice cream for them! You see, Kathy appreciates how solid of a snack graham crackers…
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…
