Free Ice Cream at Maggie Moo's

This just in in honor of National Cupcake Day (with a shoutout to our buddy Stef of Cupcake Project - - and a promise of an upcoming photo of the cupcake and ice cream worlds colliding)...

Do good and eat well!

It's late and I have been sick for the last couple of days and I need to get to bed so when the baby wakes, I can wake too, so I am just going to paste the relevant details from the press release. But promise I will be back and posting as soon as I can. In the meantime, thanks to Tina for pulling more than her share of the weight for the last four months...

Ice Cream Gift Idea #5

Send the gift of love....send em ice cream. eCeamery has some great holiday gift packs with some seriously good flavors. Or if you want to be creative the cool thing about eCreamery is that you can create your own flavor, name it, and they'll package it and ship it. You choose form a Gelato, Sorbetto or Ice Cream base, add your flavors and mix-ins then give it a fun name and you have your very own pint of ice cream created just by you. It really would be a fun gift to send to someone. Who doesn't want ice cream delivered straight to their door?!

Ice Cream Gift Idea #4

Oh this is so fun and kitschy I just love it! Leave it to good old Fred to come up with this and for my coblogger Bethany to find it. It's a jumbo Ice Cream Cone Lamp that measures over two feet tall. How fun is this! Oh and no it is not self levitating! This lamp is all yours for just $48. Get it while its hot because they have limited quantities.

Ice Cream Gift Idea #3

Well yesterday I commented that I liked the ice cream bowls because they looked homemade well today I love this gift idea because it is handmade. I found this adorable and handmade ice cream cone necklace on Etsy. It is so cute and looks very well hand-crafted. It is made of sterling silver and is 16" but because it is handmade you can ask for a preferred length. 

Have an ice cream lover who admires handmade or silver jewelry? This is the perfect scoop for them!

Ice Cream Gift Idea #2

Most of you by now know I love ice cream but the other thing I am not sure I mentioned is a second love of mine is Target. I live 1 mile from one and probably go in 3-5 times a week. for who knows what. Well today's gift idea is simple and cost effective and so adorable. It's a set of four ceramic ice cream bowls for $7.99. I love that these have a handcrafted look and also are sophisticated looking enough to serve at the dinner table for guests filled with homemade ice cream. They come in three great muted colors of Avacado, Cocoa, or Eggplant. Pair these with some petite ice cream spoons and it is the perfect gift.
