Coffee is a terrific morning wake-me-up, as well as an afternoon pick-me-up. Not only that but it has a terrific aroma and oh-so flavorful. So much so it is an added ingredient to many other delights...Coffee Angel Food Cake, Coffee Cupcakes, Coffee Granita, Café au Lait Chiffon Pie, Irish Coffee Cheesecake, and of course, Tiramasu, just to name a few. There is one not mentioned, which is shining in this day's spotlight. Some of us put cream in our coffee so why not put coffee in the cream...ice cream, that is!

September 6 is...

Today's History Lesson...ice cream cone

An abundance of celebrations occur throughout the year that center around ice cream, different flavors, sandwiches, sundaes, floats, sodas, splits, soft serve, cakes, pies, single, double, triple or just about anyway you like it. Therefore, it's not surprising to discover a delicate partner of this delicious cold treat being invented to ward off the heat on this day in history. Continuing with the month of July being Ice Cream Month, it would do ice cream an injustice to not include a bit of trivia about the ice cream cone.
