Dreyer's/Edy's Slow Churned Ice Cream Scoops for Smiles!

 Ice Cream. It's our favorite. During the summer we can be found churning our 1950s hand crank ice cream maker. It's family time cranking and talking. It's dreaming about flavors and making them happen. It's a cool treat for a hot summer day.

It's easy for me to say it, "My family LOVES ice cream".

While we love creating our own ice cream, sometimes it just isn't practical. It takes time, ingredients and arm power. Still, the taste is worth it. When we're crunched on time and/or ingredients, these days we're reaching for Dreyer's Slow Churned Ice Cream.

My husband jokes with me every time I come home with Dreyer's because well, Mr. President, once worked there. He will kid and say, "Thinking about Mr. President again, I see."  While it's true Dreyer's puts a smile on my face, it has nothing to do with Mr. President and more to do with  20 different flavors and half the fat and one-third the calories as regular ice cream. I keep that to myself because the taste is still delectable, tastes just like regular ice cream.  The creamy consistency is just like homemade and I can spend time (alone) in front of the freezer case trying to decide on a flavor!

Dreyer's Slow Churned Ice Cream is giving a big reason to smile this summer. TV Personality, actress and model, Brooke Burke, has partnered with Dreyer's Slow Churned Light Ice Cream to give away more than 25,000 free scoops of ice cream... turning scoops into smiles!

Support with a Smile:
• For every “ice cream smile” photo uploaded to Dreyer’s Facebook page, $5 will be donated to Operation Smile, an international children’s medical charity.
• The goal is to give away more than 25,000 scoops of ice cream, capture 25,000 photos of ice cream smiles before summer’s end.
• These efforts will help deliver more than 500 reconstructive surgeries to children around the globe suffering from cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities.
• Of the photos submitted, ten lucky smiles will be featured in a Dreyer’s Slow Churned print ad.
• One lucky picture will win a coveted spot on the cartons of a Slow Churned limited-edition flavor, being re-introduced to store shelves in early 2013.

If you live West of the Rockies this ice cream is under the Dreyer’s name, but if you live east of the Rockies this ice cream is under the Edy’s name. Regardless of the name Dreyer’s/Edy’s slow churned ice cream is sold nation wide at many retailers. Visit http://dreyers.slowchurned.com to find a retailer near you!

Get Social with Dreyer's on  Facebook and upload your ice cream smile photo.

1/2 the fat, 1/3 fewer calories than regular ice cream, $5 to help kids. Go ahead, smile!

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Dreyer’s / Edy’s. I received a coupon to purchase product samples and a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.

September 2008 Issue of Family Fun

 I always wanted to write. To be a travel journalist, live like a resident, see it as a tourist. It hasn't worked out that way so far... Someday... In the meantime, check out page 80 in the September issue of Family Fun Magazine. In the box on the lower left-hand side of the page is my idea! I love Family Fun Magazine. We have subscribed to it since my second child was born, some fifteen years ago. It's changed some, and some not. It has excellent articles and they are all geared towards being a family...I love that! My favorite section is the cooking articles. I love to try new recipes and FF gears theirs so I can actually cook a great recipe with simplicity so the kiddos can do most of the work! Again, page 80...check it out!

Best Friends: A Reunion After 14 Years

 It had been a long, long time. Unbelievably, time did NOT standstill. People came and went in our lives. It had been fourteen years since I last saw the person who forever will be known as "MY BEST FRIEND." There's no need to hide anything. I was nervous. Those five tenants who rented my uterus for nine months at a time were less than friendly to my body. Not that it should matter, he saw my best and worst side for two years, and now should be no different. Saturday time DID standstill. It seemed to drag on and on. I was introduced to his son. It was like looking through a time machine...he had the same hands, fingers, and fingernails as his dad and his bottom lip matched his. They had the same neck and the shape of their eyes. Wow! Genes are pretty amazing ! I stood against the chain link fence, #72 embedded in my line of vision. He was at the starting line and I was ready to watch him race . It would be the first time I'd seen him race--something he loved. This was

Sometimes Waiting Isn't the Worst Thing

We were giddy and today we learned Sometimes Waiting Isn't the Worst Thing. My grandma called this morning around 11am. She had some errands to run and then she'd be by to visit. She comes over once a week. I usually do her hair and we drink coffee and enjoy being women . My two smaller children were so excited. They refused to nap exclaiming they were waiting for " Charlotte the Great "! By Noon, they were wired from their sleepiness and in need of a nap. So, I promised when Charlotte the Great came, I'd wake them up. By 1pm I was restless. Where was she? My stomach was upset, I contributed this to the six pieces of Hershey's Bliss I'd devoured while waiting. And still...I waited. I really had no place to go, but by 1:30 pm I was feeling like I was late. Like I needed to be somewhere. I think I was just bored and looking forward to "girl time" had me anxious. Then it happened. About 1:57 pm the phone rang. My Grandma on the o
