Meyer Lemon Ice Cream Sandwiches by Cravings of a Lunatic

I have a little confession to make. I cheated. I really didn't mean to. It just kind of happened. I had grand intentions to be a good girl... but then I was like nah. It was so worth it though. I mean look at these little cutie pies. Well, not really "pies". Let's correct that... Look at these little cutie ice cream sandwiches. Totally worth a little cheating on the recipe. … [Read more...]

September 23, 2012 by Kim Beaulieu 115 Comments

Hi folks. I am so excited to be kicking off Fall with an apple recipe. To me Fall just screams apples. I love finding ways to use them this time of the year. The possibilities for them are endless. Over the season I'll share some tried and true recipes I love, and also some new ideas. You all know how much I love to experiment in the kitchen. There is something so exciting about getting in the kitchen with ingredients, some loud music and no plan. Some of the best recipes start out that way. … [Read more...]

Tomorrow we hit the road for our adventure to the wild west. So it's B-Dude's farewell to his dad and our last day to enjoy … [Read more...]

Lunatic’s Top 10 Ice Cream Recipes for Ice Cream Sundays

August 19, 2012 by Kim Beaulieu 13 Comments

A little over a week till we leave for vacation. I think I've got my ducks in a row. But then we always think we do right, then we get 2 days from home and realize we forgot the memory cards or enough undergarments or things like that. I've made my check lists. I'm checking them twice. I figure that's how Santa finds out who is naughty or nice. So in theory it should work for me too. Wish me luck I don't end up on the naughty list for forgetting something, um, vital. *blushes* Well since … [Read more...]
