February 2008 . Swensen's
One of my favorite local stomping grounds for ice cream. Nothing beats good old fashion ice cream from Swensen’s. It’s my goal to try all the flavors, but somehow I always manage to get suckered into ordering my usual toasted almond ice cream in a cone. =)

After a very long hiatus, I decided to return home. This time, I’m coming back with rejuvenated senses to inspire and embrace the delicious side of life.
