Overload on adventure today. Bessie’s been much too far behind on sharing some of her adventures in Texas. Also included are Ice Cream Escapades from the Fredericksburg Bakery and Gelato’s. A quick review – Fred’s was unpleasently ice chunky and Gelato’s was filled with wonderful flavor.
Plus, here’s the latest in Ice Cream Adventures from Oberweis Dairy. Delicious, rich ice cream was had by all. Our suggestion: get a kiddie cone!
