Sugar Savvy

Since I eat ice cream at a leisurely pace, I am a scoop-in-a-cup kind of girl. I can have one scoop and my husband has two, and he will be already walking it off while I am still licking the spoon.
Over the weekend, my husband wanted to try something besides our normal summer indulgence of […]

We might be heading into the depths of winter in just a little over a month, but that is no reason to turn your back on delicious, delectable ice cream. Seriously. I know that I am not the only one who enjoys a nice sundae no matter what time of year it is. If I […]

Even though the summer months are a distant memory, frozen treats needn’t be.  If you ask my six-year-old son, popsicles and ice cream are for year ’round indulgence.  Unfortunately, that kind of thinking, unless you’re a very active first grader, can get you into trouble.  Unless you read on.  In a recent issue of Family […]

After my teen years, I gradually became terribly lactose intolerant.  Then, after other surgeries 10 years ago, my food intolerance widened to certain sugars, including brown, most chocolates, and other random foods I may not necessarily know about until I am in the moment. One of the foods I had to give up was ice […]

No need for spoons or that guilty feeling after eating a whole carton of ice cream. Blue Bell has created a new way to eat their favorite flavors on a stick. There are three new ice cream bars available right from their creamery. Coated Buttered Pecan on their traditional vanilla, Strawberries and Vanilla, and Milk […]

When I spied the carton in the freezer section of the grocery store, I quickly looked away.  I didn’t want to be tempted.  But for whatever reason, I grabbed it and put it into my cart anyway.  I wanted to hate it.  I really did.  And I was sure I would even before tasting it.  […]

Feeling nutty? Got a craving for chocolate? As I have mentioned before, one of my ultimate guilty pleasures is Blue Bells Dutch Chocolate Ice cream (with m&m’s, of course). The Dutch Chocolate has met its delicious match. The new Chocolate Extreme, by Blue Bell, has every chocolate delight your taste buds could ask for. Get […]

It’s summer, and all I can think about is ice cream, as many of my readers know. At least in the summer I can walk it off and sweat it off! Unfortunately for my thighs, I think about ice cream in the wintertime as well, but that’s what comfy big sweaters and sweatpants are for…

Summer is here with its 100-degree heat beating the sweat out of my body. Every time I think of summer and go into the swimming pool, I think about how my mom used to give my friends and I an ice cream treat. Ah, to be a kid again. Oh wait… my husband and I […]

On Tuesday May 13th, participating Haagen-Dazs Scoop Shops offered a free scoop of their Limited Edition Vanilla Honey Bee Flavor Ice Cream. This flavor will be available through December; however, the company has also recently released Vanilla Honey and Granola Frozen Yogurt as part of its permanent frozen yogurt line.
The release of these two honey-flavored ice […]
