Crack Pie Ice Cream.
Is it obscene? Well, that really depends on where you stand in the battle of fat. Are you afraid of a little cream, a little butter? What about a little sugar then? In a pervious post I noted that, as a Crack Pie Round Two, I was going to dress the Crack Pie portion of [...]

Fire Island.
Yes, this is what it looks like. It’s my favorite place on Earth, brought to you through the magic of food and beach porn. There’s not much to say, so I’ll just show you. Beautiful bays, and lots of ice cream. Oh yea, and candy. Below is Bittersweet Ice Cream from the Ice Castle. It’s [...]

Blame this resurgence of Ice Cream Week on a taco truck. A taco truck after 1:00 a.m. in an exceptionally interesting part of Los Angeles that would most definitely be impossible to find again during the day in a normal state of mind. Parked next to an electrical box in a v-shaped parking lot at [...]

Manhattan Beach Creamery.
SoCal, I love you. And yes, it does feel a little bit like cheating, but really, how could I not? You have beaches, long, wide, hot and next to clear blue water. The waves are never too big, just perfect for body surfing and floating. Sometimes, it’s true, you do have foggy days, but they’re [...]

As it turns out, there really is not such thing as Ice Cream Week. Yes, from Sunday, July 25th through Sunday, August 1st—until the very last hour of August 1st when this is being written—it was “Ice Cream Week,” but on Bakelist. Only on Bakelist to my knowledge. This came as a surprise to my [...]

Alright, so ice cream three of Ice Cream Week. At this point, after Pistachio Ice Cream and Almond Ice Cream, I can’t really make a 100 percent guaranteed claim. I just can’t, it doesn’t make sense, and chances are that tomorrow I will find a new ice cream, a better ice cream, an ice cream [...]

Almond Ice Cream.
I have only met one ice cream I didn’t like. Cold Stone Creamery’s Mint flavor ice cream tastes—no matter how much I want to enjoy it, to keep my perfect ice cream record— like the frozen custard version of Crest toothpaste. It even has an eerie, dull pastel minty-teal like color. And as much as [...]

Pistachio Ice Cream.
This is the best ice cream I have ever made. It is definitely among best ice cream I have ever eaten and considering the amount of quality ice cream I have consumed in my life, the amount of frozen custard, gelato, milky ice cream, nectar of the gods delivered from a carton that has lined [...]

Coffee Coffee Ice Cream.
In the past four years, I have not spent a single day without at least one cup of coffee. Now, four years may not seem like an exceptionally long time for most of the addicted, but it’s a solid quarter of my life. Respectable, one would hope. At this point, like a true fiend, I’ll [...]

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Ice Cream.
So it’s National Ice Cream Month, as I found out from the buzz around the blogosphere. Yesterday was National Ice Cream Day? You don’t say. Well, for me, there’s no month for ice cream, and definitely nothing as paltry as a day for it. It’s ice cream year—as it has been in my life for [...]
