Blackberry Vanilla Bean Ice Cream Soda
One of my favorite summer memories when I was little was going to A&W Restaurant with my dad to get a big ole’ Root Beer Float! There is nothing like a couple of scoops of ice cream in a cup of Root Beer. I can remember sitting on the back of my dad’s truck just slurping away on my Ice Cream Soda thinking it was the best day ever!
Did you know that this awesome summer time treat actually has its own day? That’s right, someone decided that today, June 20th, is National Ice Cream Soda Day. What better way to celebrate Ice Cream Soda Day than to join together with some fellow bloggy’s and throw an Ice Cream Soda Party! Because, let’s be honest who doesn’t like a good Ice Cream Soda? Well, you are in for a treat {no pun intended}. My friend Gina over at Kleinworth & Co is hosting an Ice Cream Soda Recipe Roundup and yours truly {that would be me} is participating with a Blackberry Vanilla Bean {fro-yo} Ice Cream Soda! Here are the other treats! {links below}
Not only is today National Ice Cream Soda Day but it is also my wonderful husbands birthday! I am so blessed to have this amazing man in my life and still can’t believe he chose me!
He is the one who keeps me grounded, makes me laugh, loves me unconditionally, and leads our home with excellence. I look forward to the many more birthdays we get to celebrate together. Happy Birthday babe!
