Berry Creamsicles

It’s so much fun to watch a child eat a Popsicle or ice cream cone in the summer. The pure joy in their eyes and smile, coupled with the absolute mess on their face and bodies is just too fun. Granted, I am watching from afar, not worrying about the aftermath of the mess as […]

Balsamic Roasted Strawberries
