Here are two refreshing recipes for the summer.  First peppermint ice cream, then a scrumptious cantaloupe sundae.  Both are very easy to prepare.


Enjoy!

Cantaloupe Sundae Recipe

  2. Hi Joy -
    Looks like both you and Grampy are thinking about ice cream - and yummy thoughts they are!
    I like the idea of adding a scoop of ice cream to the melon - the creamsicle kind, I think.
