We know, we’re killin’ ya—last month it was 20 classic pies, and now we’re here tickling your tasters with a sampling of frozen desserts.
Ain’t life grand?
With the dog days of summer at our doorstep, if you live anywhere even remotely close to where the sun shines hot and bright, you know not much cools a body down better than a frozen treat.
Not that we ever need an excuse to eat ice cream or any of the other delectable icy goodies in its vein—we’d eat it any day, but we’d especially eat it on a 95-degree, hotter than a cat on a hot tin roof kind of day.
First off, we’re sharing a few fun things that’ll help you keep your cool, or at least leave you daydreaming about the chill.

I tried to download your free summer book and it said the connection was disabled. I don’t know if I did something wrong or not. Is there another way to get it to download to my computer?
And thanks for all these wonderful recipes. So many to choose from! They all look great!

For the raspberry frozen yogurt I added some frozen bananas to the recipe…. just to make it different. I skipped the sugar though. It came out great for me.
