Ice Cream: Don’t Wait for the Truck

Having grown up on a barrier island at the Jersey Shore, I became accustomed to so many things that I now miss. The smell of salty air, the sound of the waves crashing onto the bulkhead, even seagulls. One of those things that I do not miss is the sound of that annoying ice cream truck as the driver made his way down the street. Just today we went to the beach for the day and we heard the ice cream man ringing his bell on the dune and Emma asked if I had any money.

The thing is, for the price of one treat at the ice cream truck, you can enjoy an entire gallon of delicious ice cream at home. We recently stopped at Walgreems and discovered that they now carry the same delicious ice cream that we buy at the grocery store. We decided to pick up Breyers Neopolitan and a package of Frutare bars along with fixings for sundaes.

So why wait for the truck when you can have something better (and cheaper) at home after a quick stop at Walgreens. Ice cream is the perfect way to cool off when playing around in the yard. We enjoyed some family time after dinner with delicious treats and play time. I didn’t hear any complaints – and all without the annoying ice cream truck music.
