ICE CREAM FREEZE

It's my first "Blogiversary" which means PARTY! and you're all invited. And if you're going to have a party, you've got to serve ice cream and give a present. So, I've got the best of both worlds all rolled into one just for you!

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Ice Cream!

Just look at this fabulous prize, and it could be headed your way! The winner will receive ice cream cone table weights (4), Cute Brutes ice cream spoons (4), a Jelly Belly ice cream cone filled with jelly beans in ice cream flavors, a miniature cone with pink ice cream filled with bubbles, ceramic ice cream cone sprinkle shakers (2), a jar of Carnival sprinkles, 2 fat quarters of ice cream fabric, and last, but not least, a picture of an ice cream cone done by Frannie! How's that for a present?!! Sorry ladies, the basket and cloth napkins are NOT included (for display purposes only).

Here's how you can enter:

Make a comment telling Frannie and Me what your favorite ice cream treat is (ice cream flavor, sundae, banana split, shake, float, etc., etc. - Frannie's personal favorite is Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough in a dish with no extras) This will get you one entry.

Do you want twice the chance? Then link my "I Scream" icon onto your blog, and you'll get a second entry.

Be sure I have a way to contact you. Then on Sunday, August 2nd, sometime in the early evening, Frannie will announce the winner.

Good Luck and Pass It On!

S.W.A.K.

What a fabulous party! Thanks for inviting me! Ice cream is my all-time favorite food. What I love to do is combine two flavors, each with lots of yummy chunks of stuff but different base flavor, then either sprinkle on some Nestle Quik powder or pour over a generous helping of Magic Shell. Then I let it sit for a few minutes to get all melty. Oooooh, then....I enjoy!

Happy Anniversary!

Hey girls, great gifts. Especially that Frannie artwork. I love that the best. My favorite ice cream is Butter Pecan. Nothing on top just that in a bowl.
Happy Blogiversary!!!

Kerry said...

what an exciting gift; I would so love to receive!! My favourite is chocolate in any shape or form, with coffee, or caramel or toffee all coming along behind. But then there is almond and......my gosh there are so many. It is so hard to choose in those big icreameries!

And my fav ice cream is chocolate chip!

Oh yes please ! I would LOVE to win this. I LOVE icecream. My absolute favorite is chocolate ice cream followed closely by strawberry, in a bowl ( a large bowl) , definately no cones!! Having said this though I love any icecream!

My favorite ice cream treat is a simple hot fudge sundae with whipped cream and nuts on top! Thanks for the giveaway! :0)

dianne said...

my favorite ice cream is the bowl i don't have to share with anyone else ... big brown eyes look up at me and say "thatlooksgoodcanihaveabite?" and the next thing i know it's all gone!

Nancy said...

What is my favorite????? ICE CREAM anything. When I was pregnant with my second child every day was a day to get ice cream. I found a coconut ice cream the other day.... totally yummy. And banana, and pina colada and......... well you get the idea. Thank you so much for hosting this; our group is known as the Sundae Quilters and this would definitely be enjoyed.

Oh, and I've posted a link on my blog.

Hugs!

I *love* ice cream! My saying as a kid - There's ALWAYS room for ice cream!! My favorite is chocolate chip cookie dough, too! Although a couple of summers ago a local dairy in CIncinnati had peanut butter cookie dough and that was pretty wonderful, too!!

Pam Sykes (aka Pretty Knitty) said...

Hi! This is my first cisit to your blog - very nice! And a contest? Lucky day! Anyway, my favorite ice cream is actually coffee flavored frozen yogurt with chocolate chunks that I get at a local shop! Yummmmm!

Can I play? Cheryl over at Polka Dot and Rick Rack told me about your giveaway. I don't have a favorite ice cream treat but my favorite flavor of ice cream is Edy's Espresso Chip. Yum!

Carrie P. said...

I forgot to wish you a Happy Blogiversary!!!

Alana said...

oooh, how fun!

I think my favorite Ice cream treat would have to be a banana split. I just love the taste of bananas and ice cream together!
But I love anything ice cream related. I havent met an ice cream I didnt like.


Thanks for the giveaway, happy blogiversary! :)

Sorry - i forgot to mention what my FAVORITE ice cream treat is ... orange sherbet (can't actually eat ice cream - as much as i love it)

Anonymous said...

My favorite ice creams are coffee or mocha because the only thing better than plain coffee is coffee with chocolate! Can I enter the contest too? I have my eye on that painting by Frannie!

Happy Blogiversary,
Roxanne

Peanut butter and chocolate! Actually chocolate anything, but I LOVE Baskin Robbins peanut butter and chocolate.... Can't have it in the house, because I would devour it too fast! I used to live withing walking distance of a BR and we would go for a double scoop cone way too often. I miss that!
Nothing is better than pb and choc in a sundae or in a banana split with more chocolate sauce. ymmmmmm.

Just wanted to say Happy Blogvercity!!!!! I just hopped over from Red Geranium Cottage!!!
The shoes are really cute! And the purses??? Well.... what's not to love! My daughters... 2 of the 3 would give them all 10's!!! LoL...
besides the cute ones you make! I'm assuming that you make the cute beaded ones!
Anyways... Happy Blog Anniversary... Guess I'm too late to enter since yesterday was the date... but I would still like to tell you about a couple of my favorites... cause it's hard to pick "just" one!
We have a local Ice Cream Co. here in Utah... actually Utah has a bunch of Dairy's and a ton of them make ice cream. But Farr's is the very very best! One of my favorites is Cherry Chip Ice Cream... just like that... on a Sugar cone of.... course! And then lets see... Mint Chocolate Chip... yep... There is just something about having the little extra's in there.... that are nice! My youngest DD loves the BubbleGum Ice Cream... never had it? Well, it's a treat.... think Vanilla with gum balls thrown in... DD loves it cause after your done with the ice cream.... you've still got the gum to chew!!!
Bye now...
