Strawberry Ice Cream
Though we got really into holiday ice cream flavors back in December, it’s been a hot second since we busted out our ice cream maker and made some homemade ice cream. With the warmer months officially upon us, I’m excited to make alllll the ice cream in our house again this spring and summer! Since we still had a decent number of strawberries left from last weekend’s strawberry picking adventure, we kicked things off in our house on Tuesday with a batch of homemade strawberry ice cream. It was so wonderful and I absolutely loved the recipe we followed. I owe you guys a big thank you for introducing me to The Perfect Scoop cookbook because I have yet to make a batch of ice cream from this book that wasn’t a slam dunk. The strawberry ice cream recipe in the cookbook called for equal parts heavy cream and sour cream which gave the ice cream a slightly tangy taste we all adored. Two thumbs waaay up from our whole family!

Honeysuckles
Honeysuckles are blooming! Hooray! As a kid, I loved sucking the nectar out of honeysuckles and our boys are all about it now, too. They love pulling the bottom of the flower off and licking the sweet nectar that drips out and it’s one of those simple joys that screams childhood to me.
One of Ryan’s best friends, Pete, was so thoughtful and generously surprised our boys with this LeapFrog Magic Adventures Globe. Pete said he knew our boys would love the globe after seeing his two nephews fall in love with it as they learned lots of facts and increased their geographical knowledge. Fun + Learning? Sign our boys up, please! Well, clearly Pete knew what he was doing because the globe was an instant hit. It comes equipped with thousands of facts and is incredibly interactive, offering unique games and a stylus that allows the boys to participate and learn more about places, world cultures, landmarks, animals, mountains, oceans, rivers, languages, currency and more. I swear I am learning just by listening to them play with this thing!

April 2021 Top 10
In an effort to be better at taking the time to analyze some of my analytics, I’m going to try to share a short recap once a month in my Friday posts that highlights my top 10 blog posts and your top 10 favorite finds from the blog + Instagram! Hopefully this will also help you check out some blog posts you might have missed or help you easily locate an item I’ve mentioned in the past that got buried in blog/social media mayhem.
Note: This top 10 list excludes all of my Things I’m Loving Friday posts since I’m assuming those of you checking in on Fridays likely already saw those posts!
