Magnet #653 - Ben & Jerry's Factory TourOk. I've mentioned how much I love ice cream - a visit to the Ben & Jerry's Factory Tour is pretty fun. Not only do I love behind the scenes stuff, but I love seeing the factory in action.
But, I think I've now gone twice to B&J's in Vermont, and not seen the factory actually in action - just get to see the empty floors and empty machines. Nothing sadder than a factory at rest. But, I will say that it's the place I first discovered one of my favorite Ben & Jerry's flavors - Dublin Mudslide. Mmmmmm.
I had to do an ice cream post, given that I've been trying to recreate all the gelato I had in Italy. They say you should have it twice a day - while I didn't live up to that, I did manage to have a lot of it.
My favorite gelato in any store, in any town? Nicciola - hazelnut. Best recreated by Ciao Bella's Nicciola sorbet. So. Freakin'. Good.
Even when it's 38 degrees outside.

Life is better with hazelnuts.
i tried to convince gordon that nocciola would be a great pet name for our small mammal... he doesn't seem to agree.
but have you tried ciao bella's vaniglia??? HAHAHAHAHHA
Hah. Every gelateria I saw vaniglia, and thought of you.
And I love that you have a small mammal TBD now.
