Ice Cream Social Wrap Up and Winners

Hello Friends.

Thank you so much for joining me for my first link party.  Ice cream seems to be a favorite no matter where you are from.  It was so fun to meet new friends and to visit those I've known for a while.  (Like how I skirted around using the word old?)
Wasn't it interesting to visit Spain, France, the UK, Australia, and different areas of North America to see how our neighbors in those locals enjoy this sweet, creamy, and cold delicacy?
I enjoyed reading about the Fish Man and Phil, the ice cream man, didn't you?  Some of you made ice cream using very unique ingredients: daylily ice cream, candied bacon ice cream, Horchata which is made using tubers of the Cyperus esculentus.  Who knew??
 
There are so many fantastic recipes I don't know where to begin.  I hope you try at least a couple of these wonderful desserts.

Look!  I won Cindy's Ice Cream Social tag.  Isn't it adorable?  I love it! 
Now, for the prizes.  As you recall, there is a grand prize which includes the Martha Stewart Ice Cream serving set for four and a Zyliss ice cream scoop.  Also, four participants will receive the Scoop of Love ice cream scoops.  

We had 40 participants.  Using the Random Number Generator, the following ladies will receive a prize.


GRAND PRIZE WINNER

The four Scoop of Love ice cream scoops go to the following friends:
Esther from Not Quite Perfect
Kathleen from Cuisine Kathleen  
Cool Mom of the Year from the Tablescaper

Congratulations to all the winners.  Please email me your address so I can get your goodies out to you.  

Stay tuned for a new party very soon.

    Congrats La on your first linky party. I was of town,(no internet), and sorry I missed it. It looks like ice cream is a universal love.
    Have a good week.

    Hi La,
    Congrats to all the winners! What a fun party. I was a week late in joining this. I could have entered my ice cream cake. I am having trouble keeping up with all of the parties. So many my brain is spinning. But, it is all good. I am the sorta of person that needs to see something about 9 times before it sticks. Sad I know! Thanks for coming by and leaving sweet comments always!

    That was fun - but I think I gained a pound or two just from reading!

    Congratulations to all your well deserving winners, and cute tag, La!! Someday when I have a larger refrigerator I have to buy an ice cream machine and make some of my own. I'd love to experiment with new flavors.
