2014 Ice Cream Tour #12- Whitey's Ice Cream

I am going to say it right away, Whitey's was my favorite place so far in the 2014 Ice Cream Tour! We actually ate here about a 2 weeks ago and all I can think about is going back and getting a "Boston!"

The kiddo's got ice cream cones in a dish- again my son got a chocolate ice cream while my daughter got a strawberry sherbet. The real crowd pleaser is Whitey's "Boston" which is a shake with a sundae on top. You might scratch your head and think no way but when you combine the flavors we did your mouth will be watering to try it!

Our "Boston" starts with a peanut butter shake (yes, still on the peanut butter kick) on the shake is a scoop of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup ice cream and then on that is peanut butter drizzle! (Please never ever tell me how many calories are in one... I would run for an hour to eat one though! Yes, they are that good)

Yum, Yum, Yum- WE LOVE ICE CREAM!

Whitey's is a local shop in the Quad Cities. I believe there are only about 11 stores in Iowa and Illinois all within 50ish miles. Yes, it is worth it to travel to come and try this ice cream- You must try to create your own "Boston" creation! Let me know what type of combination sounds good... I can go try it for you if you want. :)

Whitey's is the place we take our guests from out of town! The kids even make sure it happens when we have a new guest, they will not let us forget! When my husband and I were visiting to see if God was calling us to the Quad cities we tried Whitey's and have been hooked ever since.

So who is coming to visit me? Who wants Whitey's?

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words. These are broken down into six sets of five words. The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game. Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory. Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not). Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack. Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
