Happy Sunday! And Happy Father’s Day, too! I’m giving away something sweet to celebrate summer and of course ice cream.
You know, I think I could eat ice cream every day. It’s always my favorite go-to treat when I travel… but I never really get ice cream at restaurants. That just seems boring. Probably because it’s not as fun as going into a scoop shop and looking all the pretty creamy colors. And I always prefer eating ice cream out of a cup. I don’t like to eat it out of a cone because I’m way messy. So if I do get it in a cone, it’s just so I can snap a picture of it. Then I turn it upside down and dump it in a cup and eat it with a spoon – or better yet – I like to break up the waffle cone (never a sugar cone) and use it to scoop out the ice cream. I may be weird.
Okay, back to the giveaway.
Up for grabs is this Cuisinart 2 Qt. Ice Cream Maker and one of my favorite scoop shops new book, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream Desserts. Yum! If you have her first book, you’ll want to get your hands on this one, too. It’s divided up into sections like ice cream parlor, bakeshop and sundae bar. So fun!
Here’s the sweet scoop for a chance to win them both:
- To enter leave a comment on this post and share your favorite ice cream flavor and how you like to enjoy it. Cone, cup, bowl… barrel ; ) ?
- Deadline to enter is
Wednesday, June 18, 2014 at 7:00 pm ET.SORRY, Time’s Up! Winner announced below. - One winner will be chosen at random and announced sometime Wednesday evening on this post.
Good luck guys!

Mint chocolate chip, every. single. time. Usually in a cone, but I moved recently and there’s a little ice cream place right up the road from my new house and they make a really good shake, so that’s been my new favorite. Same flavor though. :)
Mint chocolate chip as an ice cream sandwich is my dream combination!

Soft Serve in a cone. Yum…
I love a good hot fudge sundae, made with chocolate ice cream. There was an ice cream parlour near my grandma’s house when I was a kid that served amazing sundaes, and the sauce dripped all down the sides of the glass to pool in the saucer below. My grandma, mom, and I always ordered these sundaes. Such a great memory :)

I am an ice cream fanatic, so I would eat it out of a barrel! I love Blue Bell (a Texas thing!). My favorite flavor is banana pudding.
I’m partial to cookies and cream, in a big bowl!

Ice-cream related story:
I made a chocolate tart for my parents because my mother loves chocolate tart and I wanted to be nice. As I scooped out vanilla ice cream to serve it with, my father demanded that we microwave his portion.
“It’ll be ruined,” we told him, “you can’t just microwave something like this!”
He didn’t listen, goddamnit! Thankfully, there was plenty more to eat.
