For those of you eagerly awaiting the start of the school year … well … you’ll have to have some Ice Cream first.
Saturday marks the return of Jocelyn & Felicia’s annual “Ice Cream Specials” tradition, tentatively set for 2:00 – 4:00 pm at our House. As usual, the girls will be selling scoops of ice cream for anyone who stops by, asking for a donation in exchange. This year’s recipient: The new Willow Glen Library, which reopens this weekend, after 18 months of construction.
But this year, we’ve got a twist! We’ll be selling Gelato, in honor of our summer trip to Italy, which featured culinary discovery amidst daily gelato trips. We owe special thanks to Powell’s Candy Shop on Lincoln Avenue, who helped the girls pick their gelato flavors, and is providing the frozen concoction to us at their wholesale cost. Thanks, Jamie!
Flavor choices for Saturday will be finalized on Wednesday. Our trip to Powells for tasting and ordering was Twittered yesterday, including a list of potential flavor choices. See you Saturday!
I’m trying to figure out how we can order two gelato servings and have them delivered to Roseville. Maybe you can save two servings in your refrigerator for the next time we visit. We will send payment. In the meantime, we are keeping our eyes on a new gelato store scheduled to open at The Fountains sometime this fall.
