giveaway!!!


me and my sister Clair

This past weekend I turned 35. You know how some people say that they don't feel their age? I'm not one of those people. ;) I celebrated with my sis, who also shares my birthday. No cake was involved (it's way too hot to bake) but there was LOTS of ice cream. I may or may not have had ice cream 3 times on Sunday, including my husband's favorite recipe. YUM! It was a good, good day.

In belated celebration of my official stance in the middle aged club, I'm hosting a give away. Today I have not one, but TWO roll ups to give away, compliments of Robert Kaufman fabrics. Thank you, Rob! (LOL!!!!!!!!!)

One is in the dusty color story, which is quite lovely.



The other one is in the classic color story. It's bright and fun and cheery.


Either way, you can't go wrong.

If you would like to win, leave me a comment. In your comment, tell me what your favorite flavor of ice cream is. My favorite flavor would have to be coffee....with a brownie mixed in. Mmmmm, mmmm!
I will pick two separate winners. Only one comment per person. I'll pick a winner on Saturday...after my garage sale. Oh, yeah, the fun never ends around here. :)

Chocolate Peanut Butter! Hands down! Made from a local distributor! Can't beat it!

lovemyabbie@gmail.com said...

35 was a great year, enjoy it. I love mint chip

ZONE F DG TEAM said...

Pistascio... I don't know where my original comment went.

Denise said...

If I have to pick one favorite it would have to be Coffee Heath Bar Crunch, yummy. Either of the rolls would look great in my stash!

Lynn said...

Cappuchino Crunch! It has bits of chocolate - yum! And when we go to the beach on vacation I have a big cone of it every. single. night. And I don't even feel guilty.

Gwen M. said...

Happy Birthday!! My favorite ice cream flavor (today ;)) is chocolate.

LaraTalena said...

Call me crazy, but I just LOVE vanilla bean with chocolate sauce. Only you have to mix it until it becomes this soft, milkshakey texture! Yu-Um! :) Happy birthday! And feeling your age is a good thing-it means you are living your life to the fullest. I just turned 30...feeling it, and LOVING it! :)

mascanlon said...

New York Cherry or anything Cherry. Or coffee or praline....

Dara said...

My favourite ice cream is probably vanilla with real vanilla bean. When I was a little girl I never understood how adults could love vanilla. I remember thinking that when I grew up I would never buy vanilla-boring. Now that I am 36 and so wise in my years, i realize that vanilla is the best because it goes with so many toppings etc.
Nice to see your picture. I have just started a quilting service project to teach quilt making for project Linus. I am using your brick wall pattern that you did as a quilt along with Freshly Squeezed Fabric. You are an inspiration. Let me know about the plaid square.
Dara

Jessica said...

Turtle Soup by Ben and Jerry's. So sad they no longer make it. So second runner up is pure delicious, make it dark, Chocolate

GreenStyleMom said...

Happy Birthday!! My favorite flavor is also coffee ice cream (although I prefer Oreos mixed in!). Oddly enough, I can't stand coffee, just coffee ice cream. I do like this giveaway and am hoping that I win!

knuckstermom said...

Wow look at all the comments! YAY!!! If I'm at Baskin Robbins then it's gotta be Daiquiri Ice, but at home give me any kind of sherbet. Well that's technically not ice cream is it?

Anonymous said...

Happy Birthday!
How does one pick??? My husband and I eat ice cream even when it's -40C outside. anyways, if it was the last ice cream i'd ever eat.EVER. it would have to be rocky road, no wait, cotton candy (that marshmallow in there, yum!. Actually lets just be safe and stick with rocky road! :)
thanks for the chance!!!!!!
anna

Beth said...

Happy Birthday! I'm a Tin Roof Sundae fan, but someone mentioned Eddy's French Silk - oh my, that one is pretty darn good too!

Amy said...

I usually "spike" my icecream with a little bit of Creme de Minthe ;0) So plain vanilla for me

Thanks for the wonderful giveaway. And I'm only a month behind you....Aug. 5 is my 35th

mom2three said...

hmm... pistachio is a favorite- if it has real pistachio nuts (some brands put in walnuts!) or vanilla with magic shell.

happy birthday!

Nancy said...

Today my favorite ice cream is pineapple/coconut frozen yogurt cause that's whats in the freezer...
I also love coffee flavored...

Love those strips...I have two bright charm packs that would work wonderfully with that second one...lol

Carolyn said...

Happy Birthday :) Moose tracks by Island Farms!!! They are oh so generous with the chocolate and peanut butter cups. DELICIOUS.

Erica said...

Happy Birthday! My favorite ice cream is Blue Bell Fudge Brownie Nut. Yummmm...

Angie from Dear Spring Green said...

I am a sucker for Rainbow Sherbet. And my family is crazy I think, I grew up eating saltine crackers whenever we ate sherbet. I love the sweet and salty together!

Libby said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! My favorite ice-cream is mint chocolate chip!! In fact, I just finished a cone of it!! Yummmmm good stuff!

yespositively said...

Winna said...

Winna

Care said...

Currently my favorite is Burnt Almond Fudge, although really you can't go wrong as long as it involves nuts.

But NO peanut butter!! :o)

Happy birthday!

Michelle said...

Cool I just celebrated my birthday yesterday and I share the day with my Mum! We have a new cafe opened up in town specialising in homemade icecream I have only been there 3 times so far, they have been open about 2 weeks Lol But my favourite so far has gotta be the baileys irish cream MMMMmmmm Yum!!!! Happy Birthday to you and your sister!

RWL said...

Mimi-n-Moe's Mom said...

Happy birthday to you and your sis!

Hmmm. My favorite would be cherry..not the artificial kind...the kind with actual huge cherries in it! :) Gets me every time!

Thanks for this chance!

Lindsay said...

Happy birthday! My favorite ice cream flavor is pumpkin.

Tracie Lynn said...

Blue Bell Banana Pudding is my favorite!

Jane said...

Definitely cookies and cream!

Marcia W. said...

Chocolate triple chocolate chunks -- my favorite. Happy birthday! 3 or more ice creams on your birthday is fine and dandy. Thank you for this giveaway (Barb sent me). mlwright29 (at) hotmail (dot) com

Sonia B said...

Happy Birthday! Thanks for all your fun inspiration. My favorite ice cream right now is Peanut Butter Cup from our local college creamery . . . yum. Thanks for the chance to win.

LizA. said...

It's hard to choose a "favorite" -- I love it all! But, if pressed, Haagen-Daz Vanilla Swiss Almond ties with Starbucks Java Chip Frappuccino ice cream. (don't know if you can get Starbuck's ice cream in other parts of the country, but it's in all the grocery stores here in Seattle!)

Melissa said...

Peanut butter and Chocolate from Baskin Robbins. I am semi-addicted. It's a good thing I live an hour and a half from the nearest location!

Happy birthday!

What Comes Next? said...

Happy Birthday to you and Claire! Ice cream!!! The pefect way to celebrate. Of course, I'm one of the boring ones - a traditionalist you might say - fresh home made vanilla, with lots of vanilaa bean seeds - yummmmmmmmmmmmm! But then again, I'd be willing to give that coffee with brownie chunks a try - I do love mixing brownie or chocolate cake into my vanilla!

Amy, a redeemed sheep said...

Happy birthday!! Thanks for the great give-away!

My favorite ice cream is Reese's Peanut Butter cups mixed in vanilla ice cream and to add to the calorie count, malt mixed in. Yummy!

Becky said...

I love key lime pie ice cream with little bits of pie crust in it. The best!

Anonymous said...

Southern Blackberry cobbler is my fave by blue bell!

TRacy

dawson.tracy35@yahoo.com

Jeni Baker said...

Happy Birthday!

My favorite flavor of ice cream is Dolce de Leche!

Lori said...

Mint chocolate chips wins hands down but years ago Baskin & Robbins had something called Grape Ice that I loved! Happy Birthday!

Kerri K said...

For a while now, my favorite ice cream flavor has been cherry cordial (cherry ice cream with chunks of chocolate in it) from the grocery store. However, my friend Rosa made some ice cream for our holiday festivities that was soooo good: toasted pecan praline. To die for!

Annette said...

Happy Birthday! Love your pic of you and your sis! My favourite ice cream would have to be chocolate chip cookie dough or at Christmas they make a peppermint with chocolate chunks. Mmmm. I think it's time for some ice cream. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway. Love your quilt! It's so similar to one I'm making for my son. I love your use of solids.

Liz said...

Fresh peach, which is only available in the summer at Homer's!

Valerie said...

Happy Birthday! You're only two years older than me, so you're not old. ;)

My favorite flavor is Blue Bell "Birthday Cake". Yum!

Bryce, Anna, Porter, Avery and Colette said...

Happy Birthday! ice cream, yum! not sure I could pic just one, but I love a chocolate brownie or peanut butter cup... sounds good after a 111 degree day.

StepNurse said...

My most favorite of all time was B&J Wavy Gravy, and they don't make it anymore. I make do with chocolate...or phish food...or coffee...or vanilla...or fudge swirl...or coconut brownie avalanche.

Did I mention I'm lactose intolerant?

The Werner Family said...

My favourite flavour ice cream is Boysenberry, made by Tip Top, an NZ companay! Nice and tangy

Kzapple said...

My recent flavor change is currently B & J Strawberry Cheesecake. I really like this Pumpkin Cheesecake they put out a few years ago but can't find it anymore, I will settle for the Strawberry Cheesecake. Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla and Peach runs 3rd. Happy Birthday! I feel my age too, which is also 35. But in a good way. 35 is much better than 25!

Mary said...

Happy Birthday! You are such an amazing woman, and so generous too! My absolute favorite ice was a type that Baskin Robbins used to have (not sure if they do anymore since I've moved away from any close BR's). It winter white chocolate... white chocolate ice cream with pieces of chocolate covered cherries and ribbons of fudge and cherry throughout. SO YUMMY!

Nancy said...

My favorite ice cream is Espresso Explosion. Vanilla with chocolate covered espresso beans. Yum.. But you can only eat it at 9 in the morning since it has major caffeine.

For later in the day I like Moose Tracks or Cookie Dough.

Amy said...

Happy Birthday!

My former favorite just recently got booted waaay off its spot by "graham cracker" ice cream I had at a new-to-me homemade ice cream shop in a friend's town. It's going to force me to make ice cream at home; it's that good. Or, I'm that nutty for the flavor of graham.

Sarah said...

Happy belated birthday!

Favorite ice cream: cookies & cream

Sian said...

I love snickers ice cream! happy birthday :-)

Lauren said...

Baseball Nut from Baskin robbins! Cheesecake and raspberries and cashews. Really good.

Anonymous said...

Yum, have to try that ice cream recipe. Congrats on turning 35!

kim tanton said...

oh my gosh, best contest ever!!!

my favourite flavour of ice cream has to be dulce de leche, haggen daz of course.

back when i was in cooking school, i did an internship down in nantucket. one of my roommates cooked all day a glorious summer meal, ending with warm peach cobbler and this ice cream. i remember that flavour TO THIS DAY!

Love to see your posts--they make my day :)

Bea said...

My favorite is definitely banana.

peaknits said...

Happy Birthday!! And what a grand celebration - ice cream 3 times - awesome! My favorite flavor would be New York Cherry Custard - circa 1988 - I worked at Frostie's Frozen Custard in Whitewater, WI - bits of cherry wrapped in chocolate sprinkled in super fresh vanilla custard - yum-o - right out of the spicket! I ate lots of "mistakes" that summer!

Melissa said...

Happy Birthday! My favorite ice cream is good old classic vanilla.

FlourishingPalms said...

Good 'ole vanilla, swirled with chocolate. Hmmm, how 'bout an ice cream cone giveaway? No? Well, I'll sure settle for a jelly roll. Thanks for the chance to win one of these lovelies.

Mary said...

My favorite is any kind of chocolate...as long as it's a little soft. If I could find it, my second favorite is a lemon custard with lemon crunches in it. I used to get it when I was young, can't find it anymore.

melissa said...

Love vanilla with hot fudge and peanuts! Happy birthday and thanks for the continued inspiration :)

Lina said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

And my favorite flavor is Pineapple Coconut! Yummy... I can taste it just thinking about it!!!

Michelle said...

I would have to say mint chocolate chip. But its got to be extra minty and have large chunks of super dark chocolate. yum!

Sarabeth said...

I love chocolate chip (or mint chocolate chip), especially from Brigham's (that won't mean much outside of Massachusetts...)

Love that bright jelly roll. Wouldn't that make a good ice cream flavor name?

Happy birthday and thanks for reviving the blog, too!

Sarabeth in Mass.

beautifulshell said...

oh my goodness, i would love either of these!

Anonymous said...

Happy birthday!!
My favorite flavor has been discontinued and I miss it dearly. It is (was?) Breyers Banana Bonanza, previously called Banana Fudge Chunk. Since it has been gone for years at this point, I guess Edy's Thin Mint GIrl Scout Cookie would have to be my favorite that you can actually buy!

Thuy Le said...

My favorite ice cream is Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey. Thanks for the give away. Happy Birthday! I remembered when I turned 35 and felt good.

barncow said...

chocolate chocolate chocolate

Lisa said...

Happy Birthday! Graeters Black Raspberry Chip is pretty darn good!

I am more of a "what goes with the ice cream" person. I would love a big brownie with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge. That is the perfect ice cream for me! Thanks for the chance to win and happy belated birthday!

blueberrymoon said...

Happy Birthday..youngin". I am a few years past you.
I guess if I have to pick one. It would have to be homemade strawberry.mmmmmmmmm

Alissa said...

My favorite home made ice cream is fresh peach ice cream, my favorite grocery store ice cream is chocolate, and my favorite ice cream shop ice cream is rum cherry. Ice cream is too good to have just one flavor. Yum!

cakegirl said...

Vanilla ia my favorite flavor boring as that may sound. And it has to be Hagan Daz or I'll take a pass.

Rose M. said...

My all-time favorite is vanilla with fresh strawberries and the runner-up is chocolate chip!! Yum! Yum! Love your blog Amanda Jean and would love to win one of the strips. Keep up all your helpful blogs.

Rose

Nichole said...

Happy belated birthday - the good thing about being 35 (or any adult age) is you can eat ice cream whenever you please. My favorite is mint chocolate chip. So yummy and refreshing. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Oops-Lah said...

I love fruit sorbets. Can never get enough of them. And of course I'm kidding myself that they are good for me since they are fat free ;).... I just ignore the fact that they are loaded on sugar!!! But your coffee ice cream looks delicious too, might give it a try one of these days. Thanks for sharing, and Happy Birthday!

Staci said...

Happy, happy birthday!! My favorite ice cream is the homemade Cinnamon Ice Cream my sister-in-law makes. Truly divine stuff!

Lovely giveaway! Thanks for the chance to win these goodies!

I'm as old as those people who were on 30 something! Am I? LOL!

Tiffany said...

Anything with Chocolate!! Yum!

Happy Birthday!!

Peggi said...

Well you CAN'T be middle-aged at 35, because I'm 41 and I'm not middle aged. :)

My favorite "commercial" ice cream is Ben & Jerry's FroYo Chocolate Fudge Brownie.

My favorite homemade ice cream is Six Threes ice cream. It's light and summery and wonderful! You can find it here:

http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/six-threes-ice-cream/Detail.aspx

There was ONE memorable batch of ice cream my hubby and I made years ago, it was chocolate, but instead of using chocolate chips or baking chocolate, I used a bag of chocolate mint truffles. It was so incredibly yummy! It was so rich it never froze - it stayed the consistency of soft-serve.

Unknown said...

Pistachio! Rich and creamy and nutty all together, with a fun color to boot!

Ok, now I'm seriously craving some...

Fonville Farm said...

I love homemade blueberry icecream! It's the best!

Everyone loves this ice cream, even with those who typically don't like coconut. Try it! You will not be disappointed!
Thanks for the chance to win!

It may sound boring to some, but my favorite is Breyers Natural Vanilla. It's even better with fresh raspberries on top and just a "touch" of chocolate! Mmmm...my favorite dessert! Happy birthday....I can barely remember 35!

Wendy said...

Chocolate cherry! I'm still trying to work out the kinks in my recipe.

Leigh Ann said...

good ole vanilla

sewtakeahike said...

Happy Birthday Amanda Jean!
My fav ice cream flavor.... hmm, it's hard to pick one! I guess I'll have to say cake batter, or maybe peppermint. Oh, but then there's pumkin pie at Thanksgiving. But peanut butter cup hits the spot sometimes. Ok, but if I go to Dairy queen, their banana cream blizzard is really awesome.

Candace said...

Happy Birthday. Baskin Robbins German Chocolate Cake, but I haven't found any in years.

One for a wish.. said...

Choc honeycomb...yummo

Quilting Grannie said...

My favorite ice cream is Moose Tracks.

♥Duff said...

♪ ♫ Happy Birthday to You! ♪ ♫
My favorite ice cream flavor is chocolate chip cookie dough. OH, I so can't handle ice cream bloat, but all the dough makes it worth the pain!

quiltermom2 said...

OOOOOOO Happy Belated Bday! And 35 is SOOO not old! Oooooooo pretty colors!!! My favorite ice cream is probably vanilla with carmel and pecans swirled into it! I want the bright one so bad!!! I have never owned any of Roberts fabrics so this would be a real treat for me! ;)

Diane K M said...

My favorite flavor of ice cream is a Ben and Jerry's flavor - Chunky Monkey. It is banana ice cream with chocolate chunks and walnut chunks. What is not to like! Happy Birthday!!!

Kara said...

Mmmm...if I had to pick just one (there are always at least three kinds in our freezer), I would go with Ben and Jerry's peanut butter with peanut butter cups. I don't know it's "official" name because it isn't in our freezer right now, darn it!

Anonymous said...

My favorite ice-cream is Ben & Jerry's "Cherry Garcia"
it's decadent! :)
Happy Birthday & may you have many more!!!!!
Brenda C. (in Texas)

Kala said...

My favorite would be soooo hard to decide. I LOVE ice cream. All ice cream, would hate to pick a favorite and leave some out. :) Happy Birthday and good luck with the garage sale.

Alana said...

Happy, Happy Birthday to both you and your sister! My favorite ice cream concoction just has to be the Coffee Lovers at Coldstone Creamery. At home, I think it's vanilla, cause then I can jazz it up any way I want it!!

patty1 said...

I can't think of any flavor of ice cream that I don't love. Mint chocolate chip is so good that it can't even come in my house. Happy Birthday. If you are middle aged, I am off the charts...maybe I better just go ahead and buy the ice cream.

Always Sewing said...

Happy Birthday! My favorite ice cream is Black Jack Cherry.

Sara B. said...

Happy Birthday!
Favorite ice cream, birthday cake with twix mixed in.

Dory Ellen said...

Butter Brickle is my all-time favorite!

Anne Simonot said...

My favorite is Jolly Rancher -- or maybe Bubblegum -- both delicious.

Amanda Conger said...

Happy birthday!

I loooove pistachio ice cream. Although if we are at a creamary that does mixins--banana with chocolate chunks is a surefire winner too. : D

WoolenSails said...

I would have to say my favorite is Butter Brickle, simple but delicious.

Debbie

Ariane said...

Happy Birthday!!! I love ice cream too! My favorite kind is Mint chip. I even like making ice cream cakes. Very easy and fun. The only problem is that my 10 year old daughter doesn't like ice cream! Ahhhhh!!! Isn't that the craziest thing ever!! Who doesn't like ice cream?

Anonymous said...

I love 'Moose Tracks'. It's vanilla with a chocolate swirl and tiny peanut butter cups.

Happy birthday!

Beehave said...

Thanks for sharing!
I would say that my favorite is spumoni.
Happy birthday

Happy birthday!! My fave flavor is peanut butter cup. thanks for the give a way.

Peanut Butter & Chocolate from Baskin Robbins is my favorite. (But I just finished eating chocolate chip with a dab of chocolate! lol)

nancypowell said...

Happy Byirthday! My current favorite ice cream is Tillomook's carmal pecan. Yummers!

Lisa Merkley said...

Haagan Daaz Peanut Butter Chocolate is my favorite. But, anything with chocolate, caramel, or chunks of stuff in it will do. But not fruity ice cream.

Mariel said...

Happy Birthday to you! My favorite ice cream is also coffee. I am going to try your idea of the brownie with it, sounds so yummy.

hohla said...

Happy Birthday! Congratulations! And I love ice cream! Chocolate! With honey! And I love coffee! :)))

Unknown said...

with 618 other comments i hav eno chance of winning. My favourite flavour is vanilla boring old vanilla
Thanks for the chance

Jeannette said...

Phew, it is a good thing that you are no where near as old as the number of commnets you get...me- o -my. So you and your sister with the same birthday are 35, how lovely...But I beg to differ with you, you are not middle age. You have only hit middle age if are thinking of bundling off at age 70.
Go ahead and enjoy some more youth years...and eat your veggies...
now about ice cream. I have never had coffee ice cream with brownie in it. You would be talking a real brownie, home made, real chocolately? Sounds like you could be a bad influence. Do I have to pick a favorite? Okay, homemade blueberry...big ripe sweet blueberries.
I checked out "promise to process"...very cool idea. I am not doing a lot of sewing ( compared to the sewing I see going on on the blogs, but I like the idea of applying the process to all of the sharing that goes on in blogs.
In fact, I think that is what I inadvertently did in my last post thinking about blogs... a meta blog moment. Anyway...many happy returns. You are going to age just in the time it will take you to read your comments, but you'll still be pre- middle age...so let us just be honest and say you two are lovely young women.

Lori said...

Mint Chocolate Chip. MMMMMmmmm.

Andy said...

Dairy and I aren't the best of friends, so my favorite frozen treat has to be fresh strawberry sorbet. Yum!

We have been making sugar free chunky monkey ice cream lately. It is so good! And I don't feel bad letting the kids eat it for breakfast!

Happy Birthday! ( mine is this week too)

Any vanilla ice cream with some caramel in it. I can have anything else but it has to have caramel!

HI ALL, said...

I am wild about basil flavored ice cream!

Happy Birthday! I am not far behind you! My favorite ice cream is Rocky Road, but I never get it because my boys won't eat nuts in anything, and my husband doesn't like almonds (which is my favorite kind of nut in rocky road!) Happy Birthday again!

Aw, you mean all those years ago when I was telling my (younger than me by 1 year and 2 days) brother-in-law that "middle-age strikes this year...but I'm not middle-aged" I might have been wrong? Nah, 35 is only middle-aged for men. We women get a few more years before we need to claim middle-age. :) I'm glad you had a great birthday.

These look wonderful. My favorite ice cream is butter pecan. Yum!

Sew I Was Thinking... said...

Malin said...

Hi ! My favorite flavor is strawberry =) - plain and simple....

Aleisha said...

Happy Birthday! I really like vanilla, just because you can do anything you want with it. Sometimes I just add the syrup from cherries and maybe walnuts. Anything goes with vanilla. Of course, I did recently try an Amaretto Almond ice cream that was pretty good.

PatK said...

Oh, HAS to be chocolate almond but hard to find in my small town. Don't need it anyway, I guess!

Hi! My long time favourite has been chocolate with big yummy peanut butter ripple though it and little chocolate peanut butter cups. I have just seen a recipe for vanilla mixed with homemade sponge toffee though and after I try that I might have a new fav!
Hugs,

I love chocolate chip ice cream, but really my favorite thing is frozen yogurt. I love the tangy sweet flavor of any fruit flavored frozen yogurt.

Maya said...

Happy Birthday! I am going to turn 37 in a month or so and I can't believe the number because I don't feel the wisdom age is supposed to bring! :)
My favourite flavour has to be plain vanilla!

Anggi said...

Happy Birthday

My favorite ice cream flavor changes like the seasons. But I think the one that has been the most consistent over the years has been 'mint chocolate chip'.

Thanks

Hunter Cox Family said...

My favorite flavor would have to be moose tracks. It has little peanut butter cups inside it. So good!
