Tasty Treats

I find myself in the summer binging on chocolate. I'm talking candy, cookies, cakes, and the great trips to Amelie's French bakery here in Charlotte. But my ultimate indulgence is ice cream. I mean, what's the summer without ice cream!? Now usually I go on a lovely trip down the road to Cold Stone with my boyfriend where I always get the Peanut Butter Cup Perfection, love it size. Because I do love it. But I'm really not one to go to places like that alone (they're reserved for date nights). So since my lovely boyfriend is away all summer at an internship, I've been hanging with my other boyfriends, Ben and Jerry.

Now I took a trip to Harris Teeter today and bought the delightful pint of goodness that is Ben & Jerry's Half Baked.

It hits all the notes I want out of ice cream. Sweet, chocolatey, creamy, with hints of cookie dough and brownies. It's not for the faint of heart. Ben and Jerry really know what they're doing up there in Vermont. I also regularly get Americone Dream (it's good and has Stephen Colbert on it), Cheesecake Brownie, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Chocolate Fudge Brownie, and Milk&Cookies, which is only a few from their entire list. Now excuse me while I go finish my whole pint in one sitting....
