This one *may* be one of my faves that we have made so far. I mean, who doesn’t love peanut butter, banana and chocolate?!?!? It’s like a staple in dessert world, right?! 🙂 Zeke has wanted to do this combo from the start and I have to say that this ice cream is delish and give me chewy peanut butter cookies ANY day of the week! 🙂
So this week, we give you the PB + Banana + Chocolate chip ice cream sammie! 🙂

Week Six : Black and white Ice Cream sammie!
This whole journey has been a blast making homemade ice cream sandwiches with Zeke….his ideas, his flavors and his excitement every time we bit into one! BUT, this whole time I have had in the back of my head, the quintessential dark and white chocolate idea….because it’s a CLASSIC! So, here is our take on the BLACK + WHITE ICE CREAM SANDWICH!…
my why and my heart!
Every business owner gets asked the question WHY! Why are you making the product you are making? Why are you hustling to get your message or voice or idea or process out there? What is the heart behind your message? And what do you think that you are TRULY solving???
Today I am going to share with you my WHY and my heart and the reason I pour myself into this little business of mine! 🙂

Week three :: BIRTHDAY CAKE ice cream sammie! :)
This week my little chef and kitchen helper turned SIX! SIX! I am in the same camp as all the other Mom’s that have gone before me saying “WOAH! How did this happen? I can’t believe he’s getting older and more grown up……!” He’s curious and excited and brings so much joy to life…..especially with this summer ice cream sandwich project we have going. SO this week I hijacked his flavor ideas and told him that I was going to make him a Birthday Cake ice cream sandwich and goodness was it yummmmmmmmmy! 🙂 We used a cake mix for the cookie recipe and loads AND LOADS of sprinkles (thanks to Esther)! 🙂

The best end of the year teacher gift idea! :)
I always try and give gifts that are usable or edible or something that is *SO* personal that the receiver loves it! 🙂 And that is where this idea came from…a cute, end of the year, thank you themed, “WE LOVE YOU” planter stick for your end of the year teacher gift. I mean, who doesn’t love getting a bunch of flowers OR a cute, little succulent plant, amiright?! 🙂 ESPECIALLY for teachers that can get inundated with apple decor or cliche teacher gifts (just ask my Mother-in-law who was a teacher for 20 years)! 🙂
So, here ya have it….the *BEST* end of the teacher gift (according to the Steffen household)! 🙂 GRAB YOURS HERE! We bought a few succulent plants from Home Depot for $3.99 and paired them with these planter sticks for our end of the year gift for Zeke’s teacher, aids and principal!
