Joy with friends and Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream

Wendy, Bridget and Amy

I was in Columbus, Ohio last weekend visiting with some sweet friends that I’ve met through blogging… Wendy of Wenderly, Bridget of Bake at 350, and Amy of She Wears Many Hats. Hi guys! I mean girls.

Wendy lives in Ohio and invited us to spend a few days at her cabin in the woods. Has anyone seen that movie? And yes, I totally spent the weekend suggesting scary movie situations to them. What if this – and what if that. But mostly scaring myself. I definitely watch way too many SyFy Sunday movies. If you watch that channel, you know the ones I mean.

Anyway, we kicked off our fun cabining weekend with a straight from the airport pitstop for lunch and then Jeni’s ice cream. Yay!

Jeni's Ice Cream

Jeni’s is based in Ohio and I’ve been wanting to visit one of her scoop shops for some time now.

Jeni's Signature Flavors

She has some incredible flavors. Or should I say splendid.

Yogurt

And yogurt too.

I love all the chalk writing and window words. So cute.

Jeni's Ice Cream

The inside of the store is perfect with the ceiling strung in little lights and paper garland.

Jeni's Ice Cream

You can buy ice cream by the scoop and by the pint. Whoohoo!

So many flavors. Signature and seasonal ones too.

Jeni's Ice Cream

Like this one for flu season. Influenza sorbet.

Soothing for the sickly. Made with cayenne pepper, ginger, bourbon, honey, orange and lemon juices.

Jeni's Ice Cream

Handwritten! Love it and love how the same flavors are written by different people. What a fun way to add that personal touch.

And now I have a strange desire get a job handwriting ice cream labels. I wonder if I could add hearts and smiley faces.

By the way, if you’re in Ohio, stop what you are doing right now and run and get some of that Maple Walnut ice cream. It’s fantastic. I think that container on the top right is actually mocking me right now with all of its maple amazingness. I even tried to order some more today online, but that flavor is seasonal and isn’t shipping. Wipes tear. So get it in stores while you can.

Jeni's Ice Cream

Sweet friends, ice cream and a great start to our winter weekend away.

You know what, you can also make your own Jeni’s ice cream. Check out her book: Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams at Home.
Jeni's Ice Cream

The staff at Jeni’s was great. Super patient. They didn’t even mind the 571 samples we asked for. But I think that’s pretty smart of them, because then we ended up ordering 571 scoops to enjoy. You know … just to be absolutely sure they were good. : )

Jeni's Ice Cream

Okay not really 571 scoops, but several. Here’s a few of the flavors we all sampled.

Eaten

Enjoyed and instagrammed. It’s a mandatory food blogging thing … to share when something is so so good.

Jeni's Ice Cream

My favorites right now: Dark Chocolate (of course) and that Maple Walnut. Goodness. Very goodness!

Amy, Wendy & Bridget

While we were laughing and sampling, we had a fun surprise. Jeni stopped in the location we were at. With several stores, we certainly weren’t expecting that. Wendy had met her before so she introduced us.

Me and Jeni

Hi Jeni! Your ice cream makes my tummy happy.

Jeni's Ice Cream

Such a great smile. It’s nice to see when people are doing something they love.

  1. I love Jeni’s! A visit to the ice cream shop is always the highlight of visit’s to my Aunt’s in Columbus! (and I’m 28!) I’m a full-on ice cream kind of girl, although, I wouldn’t turn down sorbet or frozen yogurt if offered!

  2. It depends on my mood :) I’ll eat anything cold and sweet. But some favorites are Hagen daaz dulce de leche, turkey hill Bronx Bomber, Friendly chocolate peanut butter. :D

  3. I’m all about ice cream…for sure! We have a local place nearby that does an amazing vanilla bean ice cream mixed with gooey butter cake…and it is ridiculous! I would totally make room in my chest freezer for this haul! :-)

  4. I am All About the Ice Cream! Though I must admit a soft spot for sorbet too.

  5. What a yummy giveaway! I’m a fan of any frozen treat. And you all are just so cute. What fun.

  6. I could eat ice cream every day for every meal. Love Jeni’s. Love the book.

  7. I am all about ice cream!! I love cookies and cream, but I wouldn’t turn down ANY flavor!

  8. i love any type of frozen treat!!! Of the three, i think i like frozen yougurt the best… one day i randomly decided to try tart, and to this day it has been my all time favorite flavor! :)

  9. I used to hate ice cream (gasp!) but as I’ve gotten older I just love it more and more. Also, I keep hearing nothing but good about Jeni’s so I must try!!

  10. Definitely ice cream, although my favorite treat is a cup of chocolate soft serve!

  11. I’m a chocolate ice cream fiend! Or really any ice cream in general. This giveaway is a dream come true!

  12. I absolutely love ice cream!! Growing up in central Maine, Giffords ice cream is the best ice cream, in my opinion!! Cashew Turtle Sundae, Chocolate Lovers Chocolate, Maine Black Bear … all YUM!

  13. What a great giveaway! I have and love Jeni’s excellent book but haven’t tried any of her shop’s products… the recipes I’ve made have been really good. I enjoy all manner of frozen treats equally, I think. Different times call for different treats!

  14. Ice cream all the way!

  15. I love sorbet and froyo but nothing beats a good ice cream sundae on a hot summer day!

  16. Ice Cream. Yum!

  17. Ice cream and gelato are my favorites – especially if it has chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, peanut butter or nuts!

  18. I love ice cream. My favorite is anything chocolate with chocolate candy pieces, chocolate chips, or brownies added.

  19. Peanut butter ice cream is my favorite!

  20. ICE CREAM. Or sorbet….or yogurt…… just depends on what’s handy. I ate it every day when I was pregnant and the habit sort of stuck. Favorite flavor? Again, depends. Chocolate is good any time, peanut butter when it’s Fall, fruit flavors in the spring and summer, and a good vanilla to smooth out baked goods. I’m REALLY picky about quality, though….and Jeni’s looks delicious!

  21. I will forever and always love ice cream, but there’s something special about FroYo. I think my favorite frozen treat is any quality home made ice cream. So yum!

  22. I am an equal opportunity ice cream, sorbet, ice milk, froyo, and granita lover- It’s ALL good!

  23. How exciting! I just ordered her cookbook! All of her stuff sounds amazing!

  24. All about ice cream! Local- Organic- Sustainable!!

  25. Mm I live in Ohio but have never tried this place! Unbelievable I know! It looks so yummy! I’m all about ice cream I think chocolate cherry cordial or moose tracks is my favorite flavor!
    Rebatink(at)gmail(dot)com

  26. Ice cream is my kryptonite. I think I would survive without any other treat, but not ice cream.

    Anything salted caramel makes me swoon…

  27. I love grabbing frozen yogurt at the Yoforia near me, but my favorite frozen treat HAS to be Talenti’s pistachio gelato! Mmmmmmmmm!

  28. I am definitely an Ice cream fanatic. I especially love chocolate covered strawberries flavor or anything with chocolate and Carmel!

  29. I love choc. ice cream or any variation of choc. ice cream!!!

  30. Ice cream — any variation. We made some pumpkin bourbon gingersnap ice cream over the holidays. Yum!

  31. I love ice cream and gelato! Mmm…
    All of those flavours look to die for!

  38. Well, I am serious for sorbet, since I have lactose intolerance! I can eat a *little* bit of regular ice cream — but GALLONS of sorbet! Lemon, orange, strawberry, strawberry kiwi, pineapple, plus a raspberry combo I made myself! (I have a little tiny Rival ice cream freezer, but have designs on the KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker attachment to go with my new KitchenAid mixer someday…) Would LOVE to try Jeni’s ice cream!

  39. All about ice cream! I love World Class Chocolate from Baskin Robbins or Hagen Dazs chocolate. An ice cream lover finds room for 17 pints :)

  40. ice cream all the way!!! We have Jeni’s book…LOVE!!!!

  41. I was in Columbus this past weekend too and visited Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream too! We visited the one at the North Market near the convention center though… I love ice cream and am a firm believer in eating the real thing! I consider it an occasional treat and want to taste all the creamy fatness:)

  42. Oh, yum. I have quite the ice cream weakness. 17 pints of ice cream in my freezer might do me in, but I’m willing to put it to the test. :)

  43. Amazing – I love Jeni’s and miss it so much since I moved away from Ohio! :) My favorite thing they make is their Mango Lassi frozen yogurt…incredible! :)

  44. I adore sorbet! But since we purchased an ice cream maker I am really enjoying frozen yogurt too.

  45. I am all about the ice cream – the Maple Walnut is right up my alley. I love anything in the carramely-butterscotch range. And anything chocolate. Duh.

  46. Ice cream!!! I love mints, coffee, chocolate, Carmel favors. Actually just about any flavor that’s out there!!

  53. Ice Cream!! Chocolate Peanut Butter is my Favorite!!

  54. Ice cream all the way!!

  55. I LOVE Jeni’s!!
    I was gifted the book before ever getting to try it in person. I love the Praline Pecan Ice Cream – it is SOOOOO GOOOOD!!!

    I have had a chance to try a dozen or so in person last year and Loved the Poach Pear Sorbet and the Brambleberry Crisp.
    Second blog I have read today about ice cream….I think the universe is telling me something!

  56. I love any ice cream, frozen yogurt, or sorbet. Right now my favorite is strawberry yogurt with chocolate sauce, strawberries, pecans, bananas, and blueberries.

  57. I definitely prefer ice cream as my favorite frozen treat! What a great giveaway!

  58. i really can’t choose, i love them all. my go-to frozen treat is a Trader Joe’s fruit bar. i hope i win! the flavors all sound amazing!

  59. Pistachio I’ve cream!!! Yum!!

  60. I looooove ice cream! The Whiskey & Pecan flavor sounds awesome!… and the Brown Butter Almond Brittle too… oh who am I kidding? They all sound delicious!!

  61. Oh my goodness, I am ALL about ice cream! Ice cream sandwiches might be my favorite frozen treat, but ice cream anything is always amazing.

    If you find yourself in Austin, you will need to check out Lick Ice Creams. They make seasonal flavors as well, and my favorite might be butternut squash around Thanksgiving.

  62. def ice cream, and im old fahioned about the flavors, so this would be a great opportunity to be fearless and try something new!

  63. Seriously! You girls look like you are having SO much fun! I love fro-yo! I have to say… the person who posted #100 made me really want to try Goat Cheese with Roasted Cherries. OMG… that sounds wonderful! I want to win so I can blog all about it! :-P

  64. ice cream
    ice cream
    ice cream

  65. I have to say I’m an ice cream junky.

  66. OMG! Ice-cream is my love. Although, I’ve started on this whole “non-processed” food bandwagon…and made my own ice-cream the other day. It was okay…I hope to find a better recipe…but winning all these pints would be nice too! :)

  72. Ice Cream! Jeni’s Pistachio and Honey makes my heart sing

  73. I would have to say ice cream but I have been pleasantly surprised with the new Frozen Yogurt shops out there.

  74. I’m all about ice cream! My favorite flavor of all time is coffee. But, I will honestly eat any flavor and be happy. :)

  75. Ice cream, but I love froyo too!

  76. I love getting frozen yogurt at self serve yogurt places! It’s a slightly healthier treat than ice cream, and I’m just as satisfied!

  77. Oh! I sooo hope I win!! I’ll make room in the freezer, for sure.
    Anyway, there isn’t a frozen treat that I don’t like (except for those bomb pops). My husband will only eat frozen custard and gelato, so that’s what we usually get. So, it would be great to have my own stash that he won’t touch…

  78. I love them all! Anything with chocolate and peanut butter would be at the top of my list.

  79. OMG! Heard about Jeni ice cream on the Gilt and how good they are. I want to get my hands on some of the pints of ice cream they serve. Yummy. Your blog post just made me hungry for some ice cream.

  80. I loooove ice cream! I have wanted to try Jeni’s ice cream for a while. I made some at home using her recipe but I think I need to taste the real deal. :)

  82. I’m an ice cream girl but you won’t find me turning down sorbet or frozen yogurt! :)

  83. Ice cream and that maple walnut sounds divine!

  84. I love the fun and fare of frozen yogurt, but…. and call me a weirdo, if you want….. it melts too fast. I don’t like my frozen stuff melty. So, it is ice cream for me, all the way. :-)

  85. Rocky Road is the way to go!

  86. I love all three but right now am all about the frozen yogurt!!!

  87. Jeni’s is my favorite! I am all about the Riesling poached pear, salty caramel, and wildberry lavender. YUM!

  88. Ice cream is seriously a separate food group!
    I’ll go crazy for some dang good vanilla ice cream any day, but I’m dying to try Jeni’s Brown Butter Almond Brittle!

  89. I’m all about ice cream and I love good old vanilla! but a decadent favorite I make for dinner parties is basil and serve it w/ balsamic strawberries! super yum and surpising for my dinner guests!

  95. Full fat ice cream, gelato, sorbet– it’s all wonderful. My favorites are mildly exotic: ginger, coconut, mint, and banana– and they are all better with a little bitter chocolate sauce. I’d love to try some of the wildberry lavender– I made some blueberry lavender jam this year and I think the pairing is heavenly.

  96. My favorite is ice cream and frozen yogurt =) I am currently prego with baby #4 and I’m sure me and him would love to win these =) Xo

  97. I love love love salted caramel ice cream!

  98. I love ice cream the best, but I wouldn’t say no to Jeni’s of any kind. Been dying to try it out here in CA!

  99. Ice Cream – without a doubt! And being from Ohio, I am lucky enough to be able to travel to Jeni’s shops and sometimes can purchase her lovely flavors from our local grocery stores. The Brown Butter Almond Brittle is my all time fave – crunchy, creamy, salty, sweet – AMAZEBALLS!

  100. I’d ahve to go with Ice Cream – even though I do enjoy a really good sorbet (that influenza sorbet sounds yummy)… But, ice cream is definitely my love – growing up it was always Mint chocolate chip & then I got adventurous & tried Mom’s Maple Nt and then Butter Pecan – so things just took off from there…Now I like to try new flavors all the time…Of ourse, my old stand by when all else fails will still be Mint chocolate chip – sometimes Rocky Road :)

  101. This may be the best giveaway ever. LOVE IT!

    I am an ice cream lover, all the way. I’ll eat the other stuff, sure, but ice cream is where.it’s.at.

    My favorite indulgence? Chocolate moose tracks. Oh, my yum.

  102. I go nuts for gelato. So yummy. But I will never say no to any frozen treat. :D

  104. I love all three!

  105. I LOVE ice cream especially chocolate chip cookie dough!!

  106. I don’t really have the heart to choose between ice cream, fro yo or sorbet, but if a pint of each was going to fall off of a cliff into hellfire, I’d probably save the ice cream. :)

  107. ice cream all the way! I’m particularly fond of the goat cheese and cherries from Jeni’s, but also love mint chocolate chip!

  108. Im all about the icecream! my favorite anything warm like cookies or brownies with it on top

  110. brown butter almond brittle sounds so good, would love to win

  111. Without any hesitation, ICE CREAM!! And if I’m going to have the calories that ice cream holds, I’m going to eat GOOD ice cream. I’m not one for supermarket ice cream. I’m having trouble deciding Pistachio & Honey, Brown Butter Almond, Salty Caramel??? Oh the decisions…
    Michigan isn’t that far from Columbus, we’ll have to add it to our itinerary.

  112. Soft Serve Ice Cream is my poison!

  113. I have been having the craziest ice cream craving recently, even though it’s been below freezing, so this post has definitely made the craving even worse. I just might have to go buy some…

  114. If I could, I would eat ice cream every day! All this Jeni’s would last me quite a while!

  115. Ice cream of any kind!

  116. frozen yogurt is my favorite!! but of course ice cream fits the bill :) anything with chocolate and peanut butter and it doesn’t stand a chance!

  117. I am a frozen yogurt fanatic! Those flavors sound amazing!! Thank you for the giveaway!

  123. My daughter and I crave chocolate chunck raspberry ice cream.
    A casino in Arizona would custom make it. So good. Too bad Arizona is so far away.

  124. I’ve never been to Jeni’s but I’ve made a few recipes from her book.
    I’d throw out everything in my freezer to MAKE room for this. We LOVE ice cream. Salty caramel is the best!

  125. Ice cream all the way, the full fat, full of flavor kind!! Real ice cream is worth the money, the taste is so much better than the others. Have yet to taste Jenis, havent seen it in the stores here in NoCal.

  126. Jeni’s Salty Caramel! I am lucky to be able to buy it in Pittsburgh at Whole Foods!

  131. Ice cream – sorbet – fabulous frozen yogurt, i generally don’t discriminate! well, maybe a tiny soft spot for the rich & full fat ice cream :o) I’ve heard of Jeni’s for WAY too long without trying it – so, send some my way!!!

  132. I’m all about that yogurt treat nowadays. They are popping up everywhere locally, pick your flavor and choose from a bazillion toppings.

  133. I’m definitely a frozen yogurt kinda girl! I tell myself it’s kind of healthy so I can eat more (:

  134. I am all about the ice cream! SOOOO GOOD!

  135. I love jeni’s!! I’m a sucker for ice cream. A pint of her goat cheese and cherries is currently nestled in my freezer now!

  136. I love ice cream and never heard of these! Would love to try anything!!

  137. Do I have to pick just one?! I don’t turn down any! Does that answer your question :) Ok, narrow it down, chocolate fro yo, raspberry sorbet, vanilla ice cream. I realize my choices may sound a little boring, but again, I don’t turn down any!

  138. Full fat, the real thing ice cream for me, thanks. I became addicted when I was pregnant. Now that my daughter is 8 months old, I am still admittedly an addict! Scoop me up!

  139. Love me some ice cream! Mint chip is my fave. This give away sure would make a good birthday present to myself this weekend! ;)

  140. I’m all about ice cream. The creamier and chocolatier the better!

  141. Duh…all of the above. YUM! ;)

  142. those look amazing! i’m all about the ice cream. full fat. preferably homemade. i made toasted coconut ice cream last night, one of my favorites.

    outside of homemade, nothing beats a snicker’s ice cream bar!

  143. Oh Child…..I am ice cream all the day. Luscious Vanilla Bean gets me every time.

  144. Ice cream….yum..I grew up sitting on an old green hand crank ice cream churn. This looks amazing.

  145. Soft serve ice cream will always be my go-to! Especially if a chocolate dip is involved :)

  146. I absolutely LOVE Ice Cream! Good old vanilla, chip chocolate and I could go on and on. It would great to win this contest because my birthday is Jan. 25!!!

  147. i do not judge when it comes to frozen treats… i love any and all of them! but my favorite flavors tend to lean towards the chocolates. :)

  148. Ice cream all the way! Yum!

  149. I was an ice cream girl, then I had babies which affected my tolerance for lactose (I can have it but in moderation). So now my love is for sorbets.

  150. I have always been a huge ice cream fan and still am. I do love frozen yogurt, but I always tend to go toward the more “ice-cream” style flavored yogurts. Either way, I am a sucker for a frozen treat!

  151. I am all about ice cream – especially Jeni’s! Love the lemon yogurt with blueberries and the brambleberry with the crumbly stuff, but the very best is the oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwiches – YUM!

  152. Oooo! Sorbet for me. My favorite was a fresh cantaloupe sorbet make by a little hole-in-the-wall place just off University Ave near the University of Washington in Seattle. This might not sound to amazing in today’s world, but this was back in the ’70’s when little specialties like this were far and few.

    They also made a honeydew sorbet to die for.

  153. We are an ice-cream family…preferably Ben and Jerry’s! This does us no good for the waist line, however it’s one of our guilty pleasures! What deliciousness Jeni’s ice creams look like!

  154. Love me some ice cream! The quickest way to make me happy is a spoon and a pint of ice cream!

  155. Ice cream, of course. I always have some in the freezer.

  156. Ice cream is my favorite, but I love sorbet and yogurt too. My favorite sorbet is orange with chocolate chips (but I can’t seem to find it anymore:( )

  157. I’m all about all of it! But it’s hard to beat Jeni’s fabulous ice creams.

  158. All about icecream!!! Especially Chocolate. And apparantly my 6 year old little boy follows in my footsteps. 17 pints wont last long in our home! ;)

  159. Ice cream…..but you don’t have to twist my arm too hard for any sweet, frozen treat!

  160. Yummy :) don’t we all scream for ice cream

  161. I’m all for some of that full-fat creamy ice cream…

  162. I love ice cream, especially some good vanilla ice cream.

  163. All about ICE CREAM AND I AM SCREAMING FOR ICE CREAM.

    Chocolate PLEASE!

  164. Ice cream! Ice cream! I love jeni’s, and I’ve made probably 2 dozen of her ice cream recipes. LOVE THEM!

  165. Ice cream! Or gelato…olive oil with a sprinkle of sea salt on top!

  166. Love ice cream! Those flavors look amazing!

  167. My <3 belongs to ice cream!!!!

  168. Ice cream! Also have a guilty pleasure of eating frozen leftover birthday cake slices. Nom!

  169. I love chocolate ice cream, just plain old chocolate, the best. It’s even better with coke for a float!

  170. I love it all! A dainty scoop of sorbet after a big meal, a heaping bowl of chocolate chip ice cream (with Hershey’s syrup squeezed over the top), or a stop at a local custard stand or frozen yogurt shop with my girls – it’s ALL great!

    PS – my freezer is big enough for 17 pints!! Just sayin’.

  171. I am a lover of ice cream. Pink peppermint or vanilla or chocolate are my favorite.

  172. I love love love love loooooooooooove ice cream. I had ice cream for breakfast today. Did I mention that I love it? I will go for anything with chocolate but love branching out. I’m currently loving Graeter’s Mint Chocolate Chip.

  173. love love love ice-cream!! anything coffee or mocha flavored! 17 pints won’t fit in my freezer but would love to share it with my family who lives nearby!

  174. So funny – I heard about Jeni’s influenza sorbet yesterday on a radio station . . . in Minnesota. Frozen yogurt is my favorite.

  175. At my heart, I’m an ice cream lover but I usually go with frozen yogurt for my treat so I don’t feel quite as guilty about it. :) Thanks so much for the giveaway! So fun!

  176. Definitely ice cream for me!

  177. Ice Cream!!!! I would love to try some of those flavors.

  178. This is great! I LOVE ice cream and I will be in Columbus this weekend!

  179. Chocolate ice cream with marshmellow sauce or coconut ice cream with bitter chocolate hot fudge.

  180. I scream for ice cream! A local shop (yay, Hodgie’s!) makes my current fav: a great ginger ice cream, with little chunks of candied ginger, yum! Boy, oh, boy do Jeni’s flavors sound out of this world!

  181. I love ice cream! that said, I also really like berry sorbet and froyo! (:

  182. Can anyone really pick between the three?? They are all so frozen and tasty :) I guess if I had to choose one, I would say I’m full-on frozen yogurt, although my favorite frozen treat would have to be a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream over a brownie… Yummmm! (That counts as a frozen dessert, right?!)

  183. I LOVE ice cream, but since going vegan have been on a huge sorbet kick. So hoping I might be able to sample some yummy sorbet goodness. :)

  184. I am ALL about ice cream. Specifically coffee or chocolate, but I really do love them all. I also love greek frozen yogurt topped with homemade apple butter and homemade candied ginger!

  185. dark chocolate gelato. period.

  186. I absolutely adore ice cream. My favorite type of ice cream is creamy custard goodness. How are there not more places that sell custard and more flavors of custard like Jeni’s place has?!

  187. I’ve never heard of Jeni’s but now you’ve got my mouth watering! I’m an ice cream girl all the way. The longer the ingredients list, the yummier the ice cream in my opinion!

  188. I love ice cream, but I also really enjoy sherbets, so I guess I like anything that is cold and sweet!

  189. I love ice cream! Even when it’s freezing out! Chocolate is the best and Jeni’s is delicious!

  190. I love them all! Last year I lived on a remote island where we got ice cream twice during the entire school year. I was so excited to come home and discover the crop of frozen yogurt places that had popped up around my neighborhood. Yum!

  191. All about ice cream!! Especially chocolate with chocolate in it :)

  192. My tastebuds do not discriminate. I love ice cream, sorbet, and frozen yogurt. My favorite flavors include black cherry, caramel, dark chocolate, and nuts.

  193. I am all about ice cream. It’s a perfect food really. It goes with just about EVERYTHING, even my favorite malt chocolate creme brulee! I have a VERY hard time picking my favorite ice cream but my go to is anything with caramel, caramel in ice cream is heaven on earth, really.

  194. This looks like a fabulous place! I am all about ice cream! My favorite flavor is Mint Chocolate Chip! I have a freezer that would fit this gift perfectly!!

    Thanks!

  195. Definitely ice cream!!!

  196. I love ice cream! I was just reading this and getting sad about the fact that we don’t even have a Coldstone creamery in town anymore. :( I’ll have to look into getting her book so I can start making the creations myself.

  197. its all ice cream for me and my family! I make it from scratch every week for my kids and husband

  198. I dream about ice cream! I’ve been dying to try Jeni’s ice cream for ages… :)

  199. I am definitely an ice cream lover I can’t even begin to pick a favorite flavor, but I do tend to gravitate toward anything involving caramel. And rainbow sprinkles (jimmies, whatever) make any frozen dessert about 7 million times better :)
