Prelude to a Coconut Ice Cream Sundae

IMG_5157

A month is far too long to wait patiently for another friendly ice cream outting. We staged one at a favorite ice cream parlor on Wednesday, with an after party at our place, inviting other friends to partake in wine, cider, and games. Lots of fun was had, although apparently we were being too noisy for the neighbors. I guess that’s when you know you’re really living it up, eh? (We’ve never had neighbors complain about our parties before, and we were all surprised because we didn’t think we were being that noisy.)

P.S. If you ever make it out to Canton, Ohio, you simply must visit Taggarts or Milk and Honey for ice cream. You will not regret it, calories and all!

    Oh trust me… I would regret it. Last summer I had a rootbeer float and I ended up going to the doctors with an upper respiratory infection. It’s just not worth it for me.

  11. Oh I never regret calories from ice cream. Its was of life’s pleasures :)
