There is an ice cream chain around us that makes fabulous ice cream--Brewsters. They also have a special for "Bring Your Own Banana Thursdays" If you provide the banana, they will give you 1/2 off the price of a banana split. The kids have wanted to do it for a long time, but during swim team we had practice until 11am and by 3:30 we had to be getting ready for the meet. So when they made their Summer Bucket List, BYOB Thursday was added pretty quickly. One Thursday, Caroline had a cooking class at the local grocery store so I picked up bananas when I got her and we headed for ice cream....I realized it was lunch time, but figured it was ok to have ice cream for lunch once in a while! (Plus you have 2 types of fruit--banana and cherry, and lots of dairy!)
Everyone got their own--they were huge with 3 scoops of ice cream, 3 toppings, a banana, a pretzel rod, whipped cream, and a cherry!
I helped all of them, but we were all sick by the time we decided we were done--and there was still about 1/2 of the ice cream left in them! We decided next time it might be a good idea to pick one type of ice cream and one topping...but on the upside no one was hungry until dinner!
