Ice Cream & Chocolate

Some of you may know that I have an extra stomach just for ice cream. I can always seem to fit ice cream in no matter how full I am! I LOVE it. Sadly, there isn't a lot of ice cream where we are. I can find it at the store, but the selection is meager. The import store seemed to have a good selection of Ben & Jerry's when we visited this summer, but I haven't seen any since we moved here. They do have several varieties of HagenDaaz, but none of them to me are worth spending $12 to try a pint!

Yes! That is the ACTUAL PRICE!

As a result, I've turned to chocolate. It's also more expensive than normal (because I'm buying imported chocolate!), but at $3/bar it's easier to justify taste-testing. My absolute favorite so far is the Ritter Sport Praline. Yum! Of course, Toblerone is always dependable. And there are others I haven't tried yet. I'm still watching for the Ben & Jerry's to return, but I'm starting to think that's just a summer treat :(.
