That's a dream job.
I learned to love ice cream starting when I was a toddler and immediately fell in love with it. I've loved it ever since.

My wife makes the best biscuits and gravy you've ever wrapped your lips around. She uses Jimmy Dean sausage and mixes it half hot and half mild. She uses half and half and crescent rolls. She thickens the sausage gravy with a little bit of flour. I add black ground pepper. She then freezes a small amount of Orange Juice on the bottom of a thick glass then fills the glass with orange juice which she then freezes until there is a thin layer of frozen orange juice on top. After eating some spicy biscuits and gravy the ice cold orange juice is phenomenal. To be honest, it's too good for others to eat which means more for me.

That's sounds amazing Lanny
 
There are alot of ways to eat vanilla ice cream. Chocolate syrup, Caramel syrup, floats, splits, etc
Chocolate ice cream is too much chocolate for me. Sometimes I like to add just a tiny bit of chocolate syrup and stir it until mixed and then eat what I call vanilla with just a hint of chocolate. Wish I could buy it that way.
 
Really good vanilla is far from boring.

An ice cream shop in Santa Barbara serves ice cream in chocolate bowls. Est ice cream, then eat bowl.

Another goodie is homemade salted caramel. Pick apples, bake pie, serve just warm with salted caramel ice cream and warm caramel sauce. Made with heavy cream. I do that on Thanksgiving sometimes.

Speaking of sweet apples, I love those red ones that you use to get at all the fairs long ago aka candied apples.

I love fair food. Candy/Caramel apples, elephant ears, real corn dogs, deep fried oreos, turkey legs...

I need to go eat
 
Over the lockdown period I ate way too much ice cream....only have two pair of pants that fit comfortably now so I have been on an ice cream fast for two months now.....for a year and a half of covid I had ice cream after every dinner.....not a great move on my part.

If you put them on backwards they might fit better. Just a little tip I picked up in the forum.
 
Got turned on to gelato. Can't go wrong here.

I was able to get it at Publix when I was living in Florida. Cost me an arm and a leg, but it was available.

Thanks! I'll check next time we're down there late Fall!

Only if you enjoy sitting on a zipper.....it's time to buy new matching track suits for the wife and I now that I'm retired....joining the elderly elastic waist band club..(I heard the secret handshake is actually not a handshake but a wedgie!)
 
I'll add that I like Tillamook brand the best. I used to like Alpenrose, but I'm not sure if it changed or it's not still around?

Alpenrose made Van Duyn's - another favorite of mine. The Van Duyn's was specially made with a higher butter fat percentage.

Alpenrose also made Baskin-Robbins. They don't any more though.

I have some Tilamook Peaches and Cream in the freezer right now. Hoping to hit up the creamery when in Oregon next month
 
Burgerville has the best soft serve. Their strawberry shortcake sundaes are the bomb when they are the seasonal item
 
In Wisconsin they dont serve ice cream, its frozen custard.

In Iowa growing up we made our own ice cream but it was a real treat on a Satruday night to go to Dairy Queen and get dipped cones....found memories..living on a dairy farm we never bought the stuff from the store to bring home..we'd have 5 gallons of chocolate and 5 gallons of vanilla all the time....I used to make ice cream for the family when I moved out here and it was always blackberry vanilla because blackberries were everywhere...as a kid on the farm we had the hand crank ice cream makers.....when I grew up and made it I got spoiled with the electric one.
