Ice Cream Social 2011


Hello, and happy Monday!  I believe I've mentioned here at least a million times that I love our neighborhood, right?  Well, we had another wonderful afternoon that sealed the deal....again.  :-)  Yesterday afternoon, we hosted the 2011 Ice Cream Social!  I'm a lucky girl....my Lovin' Man has a great hobby...making homemade ice cream.  Yes, it's as wonderful as it sounds.



And he doesn't hold back....we had all of the traditional flavors you would expect...chocolate, vanilla, strawberry....but he also likes to shake things up with flavors like candied bacon, sweet corn, basil and honey lavender.  My favorite combo was a 2 to 1 ratio of burnt sugar and sea salt.  It tasted like a sea salt caramel.  YUM.
 


We had the most gorgeous afternoon....it was so perfect!  And there was bubble blowing.....




Adorable chocolatey faces......


Lots of relaxing.......


And silliness......



I'm hanging on to this guy.......

A perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon...making ice cream sundaes. I love blowing bubbles and you can usually find me doing so at our pond. Wonderful week to you...

The "sea salt caramel" ice cream sounds delish!!!
