I so rarely go out for ice cream anymore - it's been years since I went to an ice cream store (parlor? that seems so formal). It took this thread for me to realize how long it's been! I'm a horrible mom, and I realize this trend must stop now.

When I used to go out for ice cream, it was always to Baskin Robbins. My choice there was either Cookies and Cream or Pistachio. While on vacation once, I went to a Ben & Jerry's and had Phish Food. Good stuff.

There's a Mexican restaurant in town that has wonderful fried ice cream. I'm sure it's completely inauthentic, but it's delicious.

I buy Blue Bell brand ice cream from the grocery store - Ultimate Neapolitan is our family's favorite. There's some in the freezer right now actually, and I think I hear it calling my name.
