Paint Party Friday: Week 17 Check-In


Welcome to Week 17 of Paint Party Friday! (Where has the time gone?!?)  We hope you are finding some time to enjoy all of the fun and simple pleasures that summer has to offer... And we also hope you are finding some time to paint!

In last week's poll we learned that you have many different ways of celebrating - all of them sound great to us (well, except for the catching up on chores! hee hee).  This week we have a "cool" easy, breezy summer question for you...  We want to know:  What is your favourite ice cream?


We also wanted to mention that one of our fellow partyers, Geri Centonze, is launching an online directory for blogging artists!  You can read more about it here.

If you are unfamiliar with Mr. Linky, an explanation of how this tool works can be found on Week 1 and Week 2 check-ins. Please make sure to use your post URL address versus your blog URL address as there are many late visitors who get confused as to which post is for PPF when they arrive (after Friday) at your website.


Thank you for spending some of your summer at our party... We love this time of the week!

  1. I love sherbet. In fact I just made some strawberry sherbet and froze it in little cups. It's going to be a hot summer and frankly my dear, I can't stand hot weather. I'll have to deal with it till good ole Fall comes around. Happy Paint Friday to everyone, my favorite place to be on Fridays.

  6. Funny you should ask about ice cream as my last blog post was a twisty town inspired by an ice cream sundae!! Ice cream isn't my favourite 'naughty' thing to eat but like most bad food things if someone gave me a big bowl of it, I probably wouldn't say no (unless it was chocolate as I really don't like that!)Mostly though I much prefer a nice sorbet or ice pop! I'm off on my hols for a week so will miss next week's party (first one I'll miss!) see you when I get back.

  15. Growing up my mom made something called "duro frio" in ice cube trays...which I loved in the summertime! She basically made a vanilla shake in the blender and poured it into the trays...yummy! :)

    Happy PPF and I hope you're both enjoying the summer!!

  23. my favourite ice cream is chocolate fudge brownie at Baskin Robbins, it's actually frozen yogurt but I can't tell the difference! And yes, I'm loving the lazy summer, it's just perfect!

    Thanks so much Kristin and Eva for PPF!

  24. I love a good gelato, or an unusual fruit sherbet. However, a good Rocky Road always works for me too.

  31. My favorite of all time was Edy's Chocolate Malted with Fudge-covered almonds. Alas, I haven't seen it for years. So...Heavenly Hash...or anythiing choc w nuts...you could throw in some raspberry, too LOL.
    Vernors ice cream is another rare but good one. You might have guessed that I voted for unusual!

  32. Hi everyone, this is my first time here at PPF. My friend Julie Prichard has been talking about finding this site and the feedback everyone offers. I'm looking forward to looking around!

  33. Hi/ho again. Just popping in.

  34. mmm my first link was broken! Try the last one. x Julie

  35. Hehehehe..this pole cracks me up. For once I am in the minority eating my way through all the flavors. I used to be a strictly chocolate girl. If any other flavor was waved in my face I might have to pull out my weapons.

    But for some reason in the past two years I never by just chocolate but all the super weirdo or semi gourmet flavors...like pino noir flavored goats milk ice cream. No lie. Not too shabby either.

    xoxo

  37. If only we had ice cream weather, raining again....Book club tonight reading the $64 tomato; it may come to it this year. I shouldn't complain other parts of the country and world are having much more extreme weather.
    Cheers to ice cream weather :)
