The new Milk Made flavor: Double Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie. Described as "fair trade dark chocolate ice cream with chocolate shavings and underbaked peanut butter cookie." Use of the phrase "underbaked" in this context makes my knees tremble.



Vegan chili with grilled tofu hunks from Brooklyn Label. I could care less about my meat and dairy content, but this is a.) served in a huge coffee mug (I've previously discussed my love for this) and b.) totally effin' delicious.

Sigh! Fall....

Ice Cream Man On Edge!

The last few weeks I've had one thing on the brain and one thing only: ice cream. The finding of, eating of, and making of ice-cream. Number one on my summertime wish list right now? An ice cream maker. I would like nothing more in the world than to have made from scratch, fresh-fruit gelatos and sorbets prepared on a daily basis in my kitchen. O, Summertime! There are not even words for the feeling it brings me.
