My Go-To Ice Cream Sundaes
Since I got diagnosed with celiac disease in 2014, I’ve found that my ice cream preferences have evolved as I became limited in the types of sundaes and custard toppings I could consume. I used to be a huge fan of Mint Oreo®️ sundaes, KitKat®️ and cookie dough toppings, you name it. Once I went gluten free, I started broadening my ice cream horizons and began trying more flavors that incorporated nuts or fruit, which are the main toppings that make up many of my current favorite flavors and sundaes. Nowadays, when none of the nearby establishments’ flavors of the day sound very good or are ones I can’t eat,…

Instagram!
I’ve made an Instagram page to go along with my blog! Visit me at alamode_wi! View this post on Instagram ??SCOOP OF THE DAY ?? Chocolate custard with Reese’s PB cup pieces from Culver’s in Whitewater, WI.

Sometimes, cheap ice cream is better than none…
Yes, a McFlurry is an appropriate choice for breakfast. There’s nothing I love more than fresh, creamy, frozen Wisconsin custard from Oscar’s, Kopps, or Culver’s. But for a broke college student paying for their undergraduate degree entirely out of pocket, I can’t always afford that luxury. Here are my main frozen go-to’s when I’m tight on cash: McDonald’s McFlurry with Reese’s®️ Wendy’s Classic Frosty®️ – Chocolate or Vanilla McDonald’s McFlurry with Reese’s®️ Price: (as of 10/05/19 at my local Whitewater, WI McDonald’s) Snack Size: $2.49 Regular: $3.19 Made with vanilla-flavored soft-serve Contains pieces of Reese’s®️ Peanut Butter Cups Major Pros I’m usually willing to spend up anything under $4 for…

Culver’s Scoopie tokens – The best kind of currency
(This picture was taken AFTER I cashed in 10 of my Culver’s Scoopie tokens this past weekend.) Can we talk about how awesome the freebies you get with a Kids’ meal at Culver’s are?! First and foremost, you get a FREE scoop of ice cream. That already is the main reason as to why I only have ever bought Kids’ meals at Culver’s. Value Baskets? Don’t know her. The kid’s meal really is the best bang for your buck – for $5 you get an entree, a side, free ice cream, and the portions are still enough to fill up an average adult (even my parents get them)! Of course,…
