Cookies and Cream Ice Cream

Have I mentioned its hot here?

Oh yeah. That's all I've been talking about. Oops.

More ice cream to battle the mugginess. This one turned out well. Super creamy and delicious. The ultimate hot day quencher! Spice and I have enjoyed this while sweating like crazy on our couches, just watching tv, with approximately 10 (ok 2) fans blowing in our faces. What a life!
