on the ice cream subject

A gift idea:

I was just telling a friend about the Ben & Jerry’s pint cozy so I had to share with you all here. This thing is a must have if you’re a fan of those yummy pints. I’ve had one for years. I love to give it as a gift along with some other goodies in a bag to expectant mothers or other people like me who just can’t keep their hands off ice cream. No more paper towel wrapped around your pint while you dig away with your hands frozen!

Another brilliant creation from Ben and Jerry.

i can have all the toppings i want?!

I don’t know about you, but usually when I am road tripping and hit up DQ or whatever other roadside ice cream place to get my chocolate fix, I find myself wanting to say: “Come on dude- add another scoop of M&M’s!” or “Feel free to put in 96 Oreos if you wish. I can handle it.” Often when I order ice cream there are just not enough chunks of goodness in my cup. (A terrible problem to have.) Enter: Verry Berry.

Verry Berry is a grab a cup, pull your own ice cream or frozen yogurt…

…load up any amount of goodies your little heart desires, from fruits to nuts to all things chocolate…

Toppings

Mmmm....toppings

…and enjoy.

Yum.

They leave piles of Post-it notes and Sharpies on the tables, for those feeling creative (which of course we did.) Write what you wish, plaster them on a big ol’ Post-it wall:

Our Verry Berry notes

A treat and entertainment for only 2 bucks. Whatta deal! I would have never walked into the place had it not been for my 2 young pals Lily and Thabea who I was looking after. The kids always know where the best treats are.

Thanks girls! Pencil me in for a Verry Berry date again soon. This makes the favorites list for sure.

whoop whoop!

Yesterday we had the most hits ever. (As in visitors here.) That deserves a big CHEEEEEERS! So? Some bubbly:

Bubbles at Mumm Napa

Those delightful glasses were the ones I sipped at Mumm Napa during a day off in the Valley this fall. I love some good bubbles. Especially bubbles at Mumm.

Baby steps have turned into big steps. We are hitting the tipping point with Blue Lollipop Road. Every new reader, shout out, comment and collaboration we get to work on makes me screech with delight. Thanks everyone!

Keep reading and spread the word. More to come and it’s going to get even better!

Cheers to trusting your gut and following what you love.

What are you all following out there?
