Janis will also have the winner of Challenge #28 on her post so make sure you check it out! You can also get lots of great inspiration for summer treats! I like to see what everyone's favorite treat is during the hot summer days.
My Dad served in the military when I was a child so he was gone most of the time. But when he was home, he would take us "to town" in the old pick up truck to the local drugstore and buy us sundaes. I remember my sister and I sitting on the tailgate while Dad drove the old gravel back roads to town and we would sing songs all the way to the drug store. Back in those days, we would ride in the back of the pickup or on the tailgate.
I chose to use the Cricut cartridge "Nifty Fifties" for the sundae...it is cut at 2.75 inches. I glittered the cherry and the strawberry sauce above the glass. The sentiment, "I love summer" is from a Studio G stamp set I purchased a few years ago. The tag measures 5 inches and is cut from the Cricut Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge. That old drug store had the best soda fountain! The ice cream was homemade...and the glasses were always cold and frosty. No styrofoam cups and "prepared mix" ice cream...this was the real deal and I sure miss it!

ReplyDeleteLove the memories. We had a Skillern's that had a fountain cafe in it @the shopping center just up the street from us. It was great. Loved the Coke floats. Blessings, Belinda
