Remembering Ice Cream Socials...

Hi, ya'll.....

Hope you had a fabulous weekend...

THE ICE CREAM FAIRY

has been to 

SWEET NOTHINGS

and 

BOY !!, 

did we enjoy her.

For the occasion, a couple of bunches of $5 grocery store flowers were in order....

here they are, just waiting to be cut, separated, and placed in an awesome container....

 Here's a few I put in adorable little canning jars......

 and tucked them into the cutest little wire bottle holder.
The cutie was sent to me from LIZ at THE BRAMBLEBERRY COTTAGE
last year.
I've really REALLY enjoyed it....

........it makes a great little centerpiece when you need something very low...
and "not too much"........just perfect with a few lovely BLOOMS inside.  ♥♥  ♥♥

Then we gathered FRUIT......

fresh, ripe, sweet STRAWBERRIES are always wanted on ice cream around here....
we slice them and pile them high on vanilla ice cream....




and, BANANAS are wanted by Mr. Sweet and others in our home fellowship group of the best friends in the whole, wide world......

....and, then came the TOPPINGS....

let's see now....I KNOW we have CHOCOLATE SYRUP...it must still be in the fridge...

then there's CHERRY DR. PEPPER topping...

and

pecans....of COURSE

and

TOASTED MARSHMALLOW topping

and

crushed PINEAPPLE

with PINEAPPLE topping

and

STRAWBERRY SYRUP to go along with those FRESH STRAWBERRIES.....

and 

SWEET, THICK WHIPPED CREAM

and

BRIGHT RED CHERRIES

.....have I missed anything ?

O YES.....

I baked a country

SPICE CAKE

with 

ButterCream frosting, sprinkled with just a touch of chopped pecans...

this kind of cake tastes pretty darn good

with a big bowl of 

DRESSED UP ICE CREAM.....

O HONEY

 One of my favorites...

Raspberry Sherbert with 7UP....

Mercy, it can bring me to my knees....
we didn't have it this time....I just thought about it and probably will have one S.O.O.N.

THE ULTIMATE ......
Mr. Sweet......well, I can get just about ANYthing I want if I serve

him a big ole Banana Split.

Did I mention that this 

OLD FASHIONED ICE CREAM SOCIAL

was the dessert part of the HOME FELLOWSHIP group 

that gathered at our house on this Sunday?
It was a perfect time to have an ice cream party....77 degrees this fEBRUARY day. AWESOME...

♥
We all had sandwiches, saving PLENTY of room for dessert....

NOW....go make YOUR SWEET SELF  a nice big bowl of your favorite......

and I hope YOU have an
