Key Lime Pie Ice Cream

have i ever brought up how much i love key lime anything? i have a whole pinterest board dedicated to all that is key lime. today, i took one of those things from there and put it to use:


mutha fuckin key lime pie ice cream. ☺♥☺♥☺

seriously, it tastes like frozen pie. it is pretty spectacular, and it only calls for a few ingredients! easy AND delicious! the perfect summer treat, you can never have too much ice cream.

i got the recipe from like mother like daughter, make sure you check it out! seems to be a pretty universal recipe, only calling for heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and whatever add ins you want!


i said i was going to try to get some kind of treat in, and here it is! as much as i love cake, i am kind of hoping to score one for my birthday, cuz i make my own cake every year. either that, or i guess i don't get one. or, i'll make it a few days after and cry in a corner and eat the whole thing because nobody loves me.

on the contrary, there IS someone who loves me, though. she is kind of the best ever, and has been so good to me. kris got me the collection of harry potter books! how cool is that? i mean, it's a perk to have friends at barnes and noble, but totally something i could have gotten at some point myself. BUT...early birthday gift to me! i am so happy and lucky to have friends like this, and despite all the sad feels, i can remind myself that  there are others out there who can make things better. ♥♥♥ so THANK YOU!! you are awesome! ☺


speaking of harry potter, the new(ish) book is coming out on saturday night! barnes and noble is having a midnight sale, and kris (and other employees) are dressing up! we had arts and crafts day today, and made wands out of dowel rods and glue sticks!






aside from ice cream, what better things do i have to do on my day off? nothing, really. i went for a short run, helped a customer get their playstation going (went to their house on my day off), walked and hunted pokemon with kris, and now we are just chilling here after making stir fry (kind of). just waiting for the weekend to get here, now. i wanna go blueberry picking. i want someone else to make up my mind for me, i want a clean house without doing anything, someone surprise me with something. im old. 31 on the 31st. its never gonna happen again. next one will be double (62 on 31? assuming i make it to be that old). okay, maybe i'm whining and being selfish. i don't really remember the last time i asked for something for a birthday though.

in other not so great news, i hit a fox on my way to work. i like foxes, they're cute. but he did a number on my car. over two thousand dollars worth of damage. yep.



my poor fog light. obliterated. somehow, my door got in on the mess, too. it is certainly balls. i have another rental for the week, and have to come up with the deductible by friday. my friend at work told me i should try go-fund-me, saying some girl asked for a trip to turkey, so the internet flew her to turkey, then shit went down so she needed to get home, and the internet flew her home, and she made the point, there are more people who actually need things out there, and things like this are happening. it's a good point, so i have been thinking about it. in the mean time, i have a ford focus hatchback. people assume that i have a standard base corolla, with the 1.8L engine, so they give me cars like this. the focus is nice and all, but driving something with a 2.4L and stick, at that.....aaahhhh i miss my car, and i can't wait to have her back.

it always figures, if it's not one thing, it's another. i am waiting for number three.

(one was rons car on vacation, two: mine....what does life have in store next, as things come in threes?)

sigh.

i have good people in my life. i have my son. doing my best not to worry about things, despite the stress and things lurking in the corners of my mind.


happy week, all. thanks for reading!!
