This pretty little pint caught my eye in the supermarket freezer the other day.
It’s not ice cream, it’s gelato. I’ve never been to Italy, but with this available in my freezer, I’m thinking why bother?

It’s a little bit pricey (I paid $4.99 per pint), but I am now the proud owner of a pint each of Double Dark Chocolate and Caribbean Coconut that are reserved FOR GROWN-UPS ONLY in my freezer. One small scoop of each is a perfect pairing that makes me happier than a whole bowlful of that stuff the kids love ever could.
How about you? What’s your favorite warm weather treat so far this summer?

A new study links the eating of high-fat dairy foods to relief from one form of infertility.
That I knew.
What’s new to me is this: “low-fat dairy foods were associated with a higher risk of infertility.”
I’m actually skeptical of all such studies. But if you needed an ice-cream ennabler today, I’m your gal.
