Octo-Dog and Shells
I’ve decided that I’m a little bored with cooking. I make the same basic things for dinners and I’m getting tired of it. Dinner should be fun, right? So that’s our new theme for the summer. Fun food! So we bought a couple of fun kid’s cookbooks. This is the first thing we made – […]

Candy Robots & Another Party Favor Idea
I was feeling pretty guilty about my lack of party creativity for my daughter. The necklaces were pretty cute and I knew the girls would think they were fun but I was feeling bad for the boys. Plus I have this whole over-acheiver thing that I deal with. I have a hard time settling for […]
Mummy Twinkie Pops
What do you think of Twinkies? I think people either love them or hate them. I love them. I’m not sure why. If I think about it too long I start to question my love of spongy yellow cake and frosting. So I don’t think about it for too long =o) For awhile, years ago, […]
Yummy Mummy Cookies
The weather here in Oregon has been really off the past couple of months. It was stinkin’ hot for awhile and then summer kind of disappeared the end of August. I’m not real happy about it. I LOVE the nice weather. Well, let me rephrase that. I love wearing flip flops and shorts. My wardrobe […]
A Little Taste of Summer
I’m beginning to get a little tired of the rain around here. It’s May for heaven’s sake and it’s pouring outside. I want summer! I want to be able to open up my windows and smell the fresh air. I want to wear sandals and capris and not feel like I’m frozen. I want to […]
Fun Easter Lunch for the Kids
I had all these grand plans to do great things this Easter. Some of them got done but a lot of them are still in my “to do” pile. Crud. At 6am when I was getting ready to pack my kid’s lunch for school I remembered I wanted to pack their lunch a little differently. […]
A Fun Halloween Meal for the Kids: Puking Pumpkins
I’m totally having fun with this whole fun food for dinner Saturday night. I love seeing my kid’s faces when I put their plate on the table. I love hearing “no way. Great job, Mom.” It makes my entire day! And how could I not make this for Halloween?!?! I’m not sure where I saw […]
I love hearing the tune the truck plays as it drives through the neighborhood. Reminds me of my own childhood.
oh I hate our ice cream trucks in our area, that is it I am moving next door to you!
Fun! I’m with Sue!
My sister’s neighbor used to tell her kids that when the ice cream truck played its music, that meant that it was out of ice cream. Funny, but *SO* wrong…
oh you are so lucky! We do not have an ice cream truck here in DL. We have one every couple of years but they never seem to do very good and end up closing. Our town is so super strict on the rules for business. I remember a few years ago an ince cream truck opened up and they city council was constantly on them and fining them for all sorts of stuff they moved on. Our city council is loaded with business owners and they ALL have personal agendas, it’s sick!
Ok, sorry, I’ll step off my soap box, sorry!

I’m with Sue, too!
Our ice cream trucks here are coolers strapped to the back of jeeps. It’s not quite the same!
Our ice cream truck has visited here too already 🙂
our girls love it and it reminds me of when I was a child <3
Aww..I remember the ice cream man coming to my grandmother’s house when I was young. I live in a small town and WE don’t have an ice cream man. 🙁
Hey! This reminds me that I haven’t seen or heard our ice cream truck come by recently!
My children love when the ice cream man makes his way around. Although, he generally comes right before or during dinner.
But we make an exception since it’s the summer, sometimes…
My daughter can hear that ice cream truck a mile away! Great photos!!
I have a love/hate relationship with our ice cream truck at the moment. But it is always nice to see them make kids smile like that. What a cool truck and what cute kiddos 🙂
The last time I saw an ice cream truck was when we were in the beach in February. I wish we had one come through our neighborhood. 🙂

oh my gosh! so cute! we have ice cream trucks in Manhattan, but they’re definitely not quaint and cute like this!
how i miss hearing the ice cream truck! this is great – thanks for hsaring and thanks for linking up at my WW post! http://madebyrenee.blogspot.com/2012/06/wordless-wednesday-0627-breakfast.html
The ice cream truck always came around when I was little. However, I haven’t seen him yet this year. Maybe because our neighborhood is getting older.
Thanks for the great pictures and memories! 🙂
