Keep Cool in the Summer Heat with Ice Cream!

Today was ONLY 97 degrees and with the humidity, probably much hotter than that!  The best way to cool off, besides taking a swim (and you ain’t gonna see me in a swimsuit), is to eat some ice cream!!  With a toddler and two teens, I’m sure you can understand why our freezer is jam packed with Popsicles and ice cream.  My guys spend almost the entire day outside in the heat fixin’ fence, ridin’ horses, and other chores.  The first thing they do when they get home is head to the freezer!  And me? Well, there’s something about ice cream that makes me feel like a kid.  Do you feel like that too?

Anyways, probably my absolute favorite kind is the drumstick.  Oh I know you know what I’m talking about.  You eat that crunch chocolate topping, lick the ice cream, bite the cone down because you know that when you get the bottom of it, there’s some deliciousness down there!  Oh man, I wish I had some right now!

My husband LOVES the ice cream sandwiches and the boys love anything.  I don’t know not one kid who is picky when it comes to ice cream! I recommend variety ice cream packs though because everyone can choose the one kind they are craving at that moment.

Now where do you shop and how do you get it home?  Sometimes we buy ours at the local store but we really try to buy at Sam’s Club because for the amount you get, it’s sooo much cheaper!  And remember when I shared the Insulated Freezer Bag freebie? Did you get one?  Well I did and I was surprised at how big it was! Great for bringing home the ice cream in.  I can definitely say that we are fully prepared for ice cream season!  What about you though? Do you have a good freezer to store yours in?
