Friday Favorites - Vol 3 - Ice Cream

Ice cream. I never really used to care much for it. But once I realized there was a whole world of flavors beyond vanilla and chocolate, I was hooked. How can you resist a sweet, creamy scoop of perfection? Whether you're cooling off on a hot summer day or curled up on the couch with a Snuggie, a spoon, and a bit of shame, ice cream is the perfect companion.

Whenever I'm having a bad day, the first thing Boyfriend says is, "You know what you need? Ice cream." And most of the time it's true. Especially today. I'm on day 4 of working 6 days in a row. Not ideal, but normally it doesn't bother me too much. But this week? I feel like this week is beating me up.

So Boyfriend offered to get ice cream. And I'm not going to hesitate to take him up on it. Hopefully we end up at Jeni's, where I can drown myself in a delicious trio of sweet, creamy scoops. So here's to you, ice cream. You're about to be dinner, and I'm okay with that.

*PS- If you some of your own delicious ice cream, my absolute favorite local ice cream place has her very own cookbook, and the homemade stuff tastes EXACTLY the same as the real thing. Check it out! Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home
