Absolutely NYAdGal. I love me some buttercrunch. There's an ice cream place here in DC that makes it, but it's called butter brickle and it reminds me so much of the Friendly's verions.
This topic and NYAdGal's icon are putting me in a better mood.
Cheers!
Peppermint stick ice cream for all!
Ice Cream can make even the crappiest of days so much better!
Ice Cream puts EVERYONE in a better mood! :)
I forgot to mention the olive oil gelato at Otto's Enoteca is quite yummy...
Olive Oil gelato? Hmmmm sounds almost healthy. Trader Joe's carries the most wonderful Vanilla Gelato. Yummy
I work p/t at Williams-Sonoma and we made Olive Oil gelato one weekend. It was very interesting to say the least.
Years ago in NYC I had parmigiano gelato and it was out of this world. I can't remember the name of the restaurant in Greenwich Village that featured it, but they are no longer in business.
olive oil gelato is unbelievably rich. And they make it more interesting by adding sea salt crystals to cut the richness...
So, NO ONE else here eats Ice Cream? :)
I think there are a lot of people missing from the board today.
They no longer make it:
It was called strawberry cheesecake craze frozen yogurt by Hagen Daz.
It was divine.
B&J's "From Russia with Buzz"
But they still make the ice cream in that flavor. It's absolutely delish!!!
Addy, when I was a little girl, we used to go to the local dairy in the summer to get ice cream - a Sunday evening treat - and I always got peppermint stick.
It's just such a happy flavor, isn't it?
Absolutely.
We used to go to a diary farm too--it was soo cool watching them milk the cows!
But the farm's BIG highlight: an ELECTRIC fly-swatter!!! :)
Mary_Ethel, where is this fabulous diary farm? do they have journals also, ot just diaries? hehe
btw..I love pumpkin ice cream...I may have to go to Braum's and get some today

No one has mentioned my favorite flavor ............Pistachio! It has to be the real thing with nothing artifical added. I also like green tea ice cream which I have enjoyed in Japanese restarants in California.
My mother gets Green Tea ice cream when we go for Sushi...
You guys are really making me want come ice cream, so perhaps I'll disobey my stomach and have some tonight.

Mmmmm -- full fat coffee ice cream. None of that sissy low-fat or fat-free garbage. Although I also like peppermint stick, it's so festive and cheery around the holidays.
Hey Ma...
The DIARY was in the rural farm country of PA (I grew up in Philadelphia).
VERY funny and creative re: spelling, Ma. You ought to get a job as a humorous Spell Checker! :)
