If you have an adventurous spirit try these with balsamic roasted blueberries, then hit the milkshake with honey. To die for. Not even kidding. Like a grown up version of a milkshake, minus the booze, although you could totally add that if you like.
Toodles and smoochies! xx

August 21, 2014 at 11:54 AMWait till you see tomorrow’s post then Shelby. It’s freaking amazing. My dad was a huge blueberry lover, so we grew up camping and scouring places to pick wild blueberries. They make me so nostalgic. I whipped up an amazing ice cream with some for tomorrow. I could barely keep myself from inhaling it all before freezing it. ha.

Kim Beaulieu says
August 21, 2014 at 11:56 AMYou will love this. If you’re a balsamic lover try that version. I loved it but I wouldn’t suggest it for kids, or picky peeps. Ha. Tomorrow’s recipe is blueberry related too. I highly recommend that one. I can’t stop licking the bowl I made it in. Getting noting done today because of it. lol
