I decided to be honest on this blog.
Because I hope that one day my kiddos will read it and get to know their mom a little bit better.
Since Ice Cream happens to be a major part of my life, I figured it deserved it's own post.
Pathetic, I know.
I love ice cream. I heart ice cream. It is my weakness. The one dessert that I cannot pass by. Hence, the sole reason why I am still a few pounds away from pre-baby weight. (In my defense, I am only 4 lbs away from that goal, but still, those 4 lbs belong to ice cream)
When I was a kid I could pass up ice cream. Or maybe it was just that we didn't have it in the house that much, so I didn't think about it.
But I am an adult now. And the mom. And the grocery shopper. So that means I can buy ice cream whenever I want.
Add to this obsession the fact that my husband loves ice cream almost as much as I do and that's it: my hips never stood a chance.
Jeff doesn't even know that up there on my top 10 list for my husband-to-be was:
He must love ice cream.
Okay, okay, that was a lie. But it sure is a bonus that he does. :)
Here is why I love ice cream:
it is rich. it is creamy.
it tastes good.
it's cold-- which makes the partaker of ice cream snuggle up with a loved one while eating.
All of these things make it just about the most perfect dessert.
Since you all are dying to know
my favorite ice cream flavors are:
Moose tracks
Cookies n Cream
Mint n Chip
and
Plain Chocolate with caramel mixed in. You have to make this yourself. Dreyers used to-- but we cannot find it anywhere. So we make it now. Often.
And this is my ode to ice cream.
If you are hungry for some now, and don't have any, you can come to my house.
Our freezer is always well stocked.

Yes, sometimes we visit "Cold Stone" a little too often too... but it's oh, so yummy!!!
Life without desert isn't very much fun at all! So just enjoy the extra pounds knowing that they come from ice cream!
THis made me smile- because I always know that when we come visit we WILL have ice cream with you guys! And it made me smile because I too am desperately in love with this high calorie, sugary treat. I happen to have 6 half gallons of it in my freezer as I type this. Can't wait till this summer when we can have ice cream EVERY single night since it will be 100 degrees. :) Ha, like we need an excuse!
Mmmmm... I NEED ice cream! :) Have you tried Hello Yogurt?
