Hello everyone! I hope you are all thoroughly enjoying the fall season, and that this post finds you knee-deep in football, flannel pajamas, and various pumpkin pie flavored concoctions. So, I’ve had quite an eventful week: I started a new job on Monday, and it’s dramatically different than my prior place of employment (in a…
The Jersey Shore and (Egg-less) Cookie Dough
Hello friends, family, and fellow ice cream lovers! Oh, how I’ve missed you… Sorry for my brief hiatus – sadly, I allowed life to get in the way of ice cream, but if there is one thing I’ve learned this week, it is that I will NEVER AGAIN waste precious ice cream-blogging time working on…
Delectable Apple Pie Ice Cream
I have a confession to make. I don’t really like apple pie. I know, I know. How very…un-American of me. But never fear, dear reader: I don’t discriminate. In fact, I harbor negative feelings against most types of pie, not just apple. Lemon meringue, banana cream…take your pick. I find them all to be quite…
Peanut Butter & Jelly Ice Cream
Peanut Butter & Jelly is the new bacon. No, no…I’m not all of a sudden going to start piling PB&J on top of scrambled eggs or cheeseburgers (although I’m sure those two combos could be quite delicious, under the right circumstances). What I mean is…PB&J is slowly becoming the Flavor of the Moment. Let me…
Homemade Chocolate Shell
As much as I love and desire all things ice cream, I wouldn’t necessarily categorize myself as an ice cream purist. That is, I like a little crunch in my ice cream…a little texture. This can be achieved through the addition of nuts, chocolate chunks, or other so-called “mix-ins” to the ice cream base, resulting in a complex and satisfying…
Akron’s Best: Pav’s Creamery
Every day at work around 3 pm, I am hit with an immense wave of boredom and discontent that can only mean one thing: snack break. Usually, I’ll make my rounds in a predictable fashion, hopping from one coworker’s candy dish to the next until I have acquired enough Peanut M&M’s or fun size Milky…
Saltine Toffee Topping
Happy Friday! My better half is home sick today, so naturally I leveraged his discomfort as an excuse to 1) “work” from home and 2) stock up on some of those “only-eat-‘em-when-you’re-sick” treats that we typically otherwise don’t keep around the house. Of course, I’m referring to Gatorade, Popsicles, and a personal favorite – Saltine…
Mitchell’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup
It’s another rainy, cloudy day in Ohio, perfect for curling up with a good book and a pint of ice cream (no bowl needed, of course – just a spoon). I’ve always loved rainy days; there is something about the soothing sound of raindrops against the rooftop that makes me feel introspective and romantic, like…
Mint Chocolate Chip and Waffle Cones
Hello world! Welcome to my ice cream blog 🙂 I’ve thought long and hard about what I would like to say in this very first post, calling on years and years of ice cream eating experience for inspiration (and trust me, I’ve eaten A LOT of ice cream). Then I decided that it would only…
