I is for ice cream.
I'm fairly certain ice cream needs no explanation. It is a favorite dessert no matter the weather. Sizzling summer days or dead of winter, ice cream is always appreciated. My daughter was lucky enough to have her birthday fall on National Ice Cream Day this past July. Actually, July is National Ice Cream Month here in the United States, thanks to former President Ronald Reagan. July 25 is National Hot Fudge Sundae Day. You know, it's great to be an American in July!
My husband's favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. It seems to run in the family as a family poll found over 50% list mint chocolate as their favorite. My favorite happens to be the humble, but versatile flavor; vanilla. It goes with any dessert; brownies, apple pie, cookies, birthday cake... (Are you hungry yet?) and, of course, vanilla ice cream is fun to dress up in chocolate syrup, sprinkles, chopped peanuts, and whipped cream. What could be more fun?

Boy are we on the same page or what!!!! Yes, I would take plain vanilla ~~if it came with pie, or cake or in a root beer float.
ReplyDeleteIce Cream...a dessert you can't beat!
I guess you take after dad with the vanilla. I'm not sure I have a favorite, I love all kinds. :9
ReplyDeleteI love ice cream! But we only have it in the warmer weather. Then we fly through the gallons! ha.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and Interesting!
ReplyDeletePlease come and see my ABC Wednesday post, thanks!
Yum! Vanilla, pure and unadulterated is scrumptious.
ReplyDeleteYummy, yummy, yummy! I have a passion (and my waistline confirms it) for ice cream. Mint chocolate chip is one of my favorites too.
ReplyDeletevanilla, last I looked, was the best selling flavor, maybe because of its versitility. what else goes with fruit pie or chocolate cake?!

Yummy ice cream.
ReplyDeleteInvent and Create is my ABC, please come and see.
That looks a great sized ice cream. Vanilla or mint choc chip combined would be the ideal, I always prefer mine in a cone, although I'm on a lemon meringue flavour run at the moment.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Ciao Bella triple espresso gelato....UUUMMMMMMMM
ReplyDeleteMint chocolate chip is my fave. too!
ReplyDeleteI also like french vanilla.
That mint chocolate chip has grown on me through the years, kind of like vinegar on French fries, green chiles, and wasabi peas.
