Soft Serve Ice-Cream-Do you Like Regular Ice Cream Or Soft Serve Better?


Boy did we have a long day today, but it all ended with a wonderful ice cream evening!! Mom, Kayla, Ava, Bella, and I all went for ice-cream in Concord! The weather turned out great...cool, a little breezy, but very pleasant. I love going for ice-cream with my Mom because I know she loves ice-cream, and (I do too of course). There is just something special about going out for ice-cream with her-many fond memories.

She has always loved soft serve ice cream. I never understood why she liked soft serve so much, until there was a time when Stefan, the kids, and I went for ice-cream together. This was while I was pregnant with Bella. Well I decided to try the soft served ice-cream and I loved it!! I don't know, it tasted so much more homemade to me than regular. Was it just the pregnancy cravings?? Or maybe my taste was just changing, who knows!! But I really enjoyed it!

Anyway, this time around, I got a chocolate hand-dipped, made sure it was a soft-served ice-cream cone!! How I remember those hand-dipped cones from my childhood, and so does my Mom!! While we were there she told me a story about how her uncle had taken her out for ice-cream when she was 11. He asked if her if she wanted a chocolate hand-dipped cone. She had never tasted one before, let alone heard of one. Well, she had one for the first time and thought it was the greatest thing in the world!!
Though this time, she got a Strawberry Sunday, (one of her favorites too), I still got the old fashioned hand-dipped cone and it was delicious!

We had great time...More Very Happy Ice-Cream Memories in the making!!
