It's the height of summer in the US now, perfect weather for ice cream.

The local shop near me is featuring Vernors Floats which are a real treat, but they've also got a lemon blackberry scoop that's worth every calorie, too.

What's your favorite frozen treat that's worth banking some calories for?

    I miss the good old days of MFP and out very active ice cream and gelato group. Sharing tips about store bought, local creameries, and even homemade creations... sigh.

    My favorite is almost always chocolate with a big salty peanut butter swirl through it, but that blackberry lemon sounds amazing.

    Last night at the campground we are staying at I had Sweet Greek - a subtle cinnamon base with baklava pieces. The base was good but it needed bigger chunks.

    I love chunky!

    Gonna make a break and take a fake
    I'd like a stinkin, achin shake
    I like vanilla, It's the finest of the flavors
    Gotta see the show,
    Cause then you'll know
    The Vertigo is gonna grow
    Cause it's so dangerous,
    You'll have to sign a waiver

    In the second line, the first word is two syllables, and each of the remaining five is one syllable. 5 + 2 = 7.

    Or is this a case where we speak the same language, but differently? Is "cone" two syllables for you? Swirl?

    Where's the pinch of pie?

    The (ice cream) ruins the flow, but is needed for clarity. iFail.

    If you happen to be in the Metro Atlanta area, I highly recommend checking out High Road creamery. I really liked their bourbon burnt sugar ice cream and the habanero mango sorbet. They sold through the Whole Foods markets there.

    I had a salted caramel milkshake today. It was alright. Not as good as I was hoping.
