In my quest to make the most of the second half of the weekend, we had a few friends over for Ice Cream Sunday recently. It was definitely a repeat event — both because of the sweet, sweet cream consumed (along with gluten- and lactose-free options), and because we bought far too much food.
Coincidentally, we’re moving to a new neighborhood in two weeks, so it ended up kind of doubling as a house cooling party too. Nothing like high sugar content to wash away the bittersweetness. And speaking of washing things away, a tip — lining your counter with postal paper makes ice cream clean-up pretty much non-existent. Huzzah!
Among my favorite concoctions were the old-fashioned root beer floats and lavender and honey-drizzled vanilla. Yes and yes. Until next Sunday…
