Icecream Season

[AlexLady]

Have you ever had pumpkin pie icecream?

I am a big icecream fan, and if you haven't had it, look for Edy's pumpkin. You'll love it and it's something that's great in a small bowl.

but I don't like pumpkin pie

It doesn't have that weird texture like pumpkin pie, or the nasty crust, or the overcooked part on top.

I don't like pumpkin or squash that has that sweet, needs some nutmeg flavor.

Now get me some yellow summer squash or spaghetti squash and I'll tear it up!

It is yummy Alex. Make it into a milkshake too.

If you have the room...plant a few punkin' seeds. You might be surprised how easy they are to grow. http://www.catalogs.com/info/garden-yar ... seeds.html

My sister works for a mom and pop ice cream/sweet treats place that makes all the ice cream in house. So my niece has tried every ice cream there. Pumpkin is oddly a favorite.

Did you know that canned pumpkin is actually spaghetti squash, or so I read on the cans I bought...then I put choco chips in my pie and cover with whipped cream

I like a pumpkin pie Blizzard from DQ once a year.

While we're on the topic of ice cream, I went to this place called the Moo Moo Cremery out in California that had some weird ice cream flavors:
Guiness
Jalapeno Cream Cheese
BACON!

I didn't have the guts to try any of them though

I saw ben & jerry' pumpkin cheesecake icecream today at the market. I was curious, but i dont do real icecream anymore . i went with the lowfat frozen yogurt (green lid) that was on sale instead. That stuff is amazing - i dont see how it can be so low in callories/fat.

Yesss! I'm an ice cream fanatic. This ice cream place called Marble Slab sent me an email advertising their new winter flavours including pumpkin and eggnog. Both are fantastic!

I've had the DQ pumpkin pie blizzard too and think it's good but the pumpkin flavor doesn't taste very authentic. I definitely prefer marble slabs pumpkin ice cream.
Mmmm.. I could so go for one right now.

Trying to stick with clean eating for awhile though so I have my vanilla yogurt and banana soft serve to tide me over.

BTW canned Pumpkin (not pie filling, the real stuff) goes fantastic with greek yogurt and some cinnamon..you can add a little sugar if it's too bland. It's a great low cal/fat alternative and you'll get lots of protein
