When I was a kid, Mama used to take me out for ice cream following any blood work or shots. I’ve never been good with needles so the ice cream was a nice distraction/reward.
It’s a tradition that’s endured, though I no longer opt for the blue bubble gum flavor (which was only enticing because it meant a DOUBLE treat—ice cream and then bubble gum).
After today’s blood work, I picked up a pint of Peppermint Candy ice cream made with liquid nitrogen. Mama and I are both mint-obsessed and the holidays are a fantastic time to find peppermint everything!
Today’s #OneGoodThing with Mama was a long way from bubble gum! Huge thanks to Michelle of Dave’s Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa for arranging curbside pick-up, helping us reduce our risk of exposure! What was your #OneGoodThing today?

Sounds delicious. How was it? I only tried ice cream made with liquid nitrogen once. Wasn’t a big fand though. It wasn’t as creamy as “traditional” ice cream. But maybe that’s not true for all.

We love the liquid nitrogen ice cream because it seems to enhance the flavors! I haven’t noticed a lack of creaminess, but this is made locally and done very well. You’ll have to come to visit (post-pandemic, of course) and we’ll go have some together! 🙂
