I Scream about Ice Cream Socials!

Hello Foodies,

Last night we were invited to an ice cream social given by TDF alum, Jackie Chasey. She had received the most fabulous gift from her fave friends, Robert and Stephen. Ready for what it was...9 pints of Jeni's ice cream. Jeni's is in Columbus, Ohio but they send the ice scream packed in dry ice so no meltage in the delivery. We ate the Power 9 and here's what the flavors were (yes, were - they don't last long because they're so good)!

• Salty Caramel
• Gravel Road
• Dark Cocoa Gelato
• Pistachio & Ashland County Honey
• Black Coffee
• Thai Chili
• Lemon Yogurt
• Queen City Cayenne
• Pear Riesling Sorbet

Usually we say get your forks but today we scream get your spoons. Tasting 9 different ice cream flavors is one of the best highs in the world. Precious time is wasting - go to jenisicecreams.com and order an ice cream social of your own.

If you need to know what to serve first, Jackie served a superb garlic soup with a selection of salume and cheeses expertly chosen. Also, Jackie prepared a hot, valhrona chocolate sauce - to die for!

Thanks so much for inviting the forks!

Cheers,

the Forks
