A couple weeks ago, we were arranging to spend a kidless evening with some friends of ours, and they ended up offering to take us out for a special dinner. They know that’s rare for us, and wanted to treat us to that. That was super generous. We had it planned for a while, so…

It’s Tea Time Again
When my Mom (who is not an avid reader of GregsHead.net…) heard the story of my recent teapot neglect, she asked if I had gotten a new teapot. I had scoped out the options at Wal-Mart, but they were either more pricey than I had anticipated, or too cheap. So, as of yet, I had…
Dolled-Up Food
It really just started out as an attempt to get a nice healthy snack around midnight. I had some carrots, with a nice dill dip I made. Then tried some potato chips in that dip, too. (OK, that wasn’t healthy…) Then I just really wanted something sweet… Fruit! We have grapes! So, I got some…

Ice Cream Celebrations…
It’s probably starting to feel like all I do around here is talk about ICE CREAM! Well, for this month, I guess that’s true 🙂 It is National Ice Cream Month, and I have had ice cream EVERY DAY this month. 19 days in a row, and counting! For tonight, we made a gallon of…
Ice Cream Personality?
I took one of the ice cream quizzes linked from the ice cream blog today, and here are the top two results: Mixed flavorsYou are a negotiator. You’ll do anything you can to avoid open conflict so you never start quarrels. You will give in when you think it’s appropriate but you can be doggedly…
Favorite Flavors
Our grocery store had Perry’s ice cream (from Akron, NY) on sale last week, so we picked up a couple half gallons. One was a new flavor, White Lightning. It’s dark chocolate ice cream, with streaks of white mint goo throughout. I had a dish of it for the first time last night and, it’s…
Ice Cream Update: Week 2
The Chis are here. We have already had homemade ice cream and Chill & Grill. (It’s National Ice Cream Day, ya know???!!) And I think we’re planning to have a bit more before they leave… 🙂 Wanted to give you an update on the ice cream consumption for week two of July. Let’s see… 7/8…
