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. :)

Happy Birthday! It sounds like it was a good one. My favorite "ice cream" flavor is actually raspberry sorbet with chocolate chips... call me crazy!

Amy Sp said...

Pralines and Cream!

Heather Crowe said...

My favorite ice cream is Ben and Jerry's Imagine Whirled Peace. Caramel & Sweet Cream Ice cream swirled with fudge peace signs and toffee cookie pieces. Soooo good.

Happy Birthday!

Unknown said...

I happen to live in Utah where I've heard we consume the MOST ice cream than anywhere else in the US. Who knows. Anyway, my favorite is banana carmel crunch from Coldstone. It is fabulous with banana ice cream too. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Anonymous said...

My absolut favourite ice-cream "flavour" is vanilla with jello smashed up in it...weird maybe but it brings me back to my childhood.

If that was not an option I would have to say Orange float flavour.

Moneik said...

Vanilla with a piece of chocolate cake mixed in!

kathy said...

Happy birthday! My favorite ice cream flavor is Ben & Jerry's Oatmeal Cookie Crunch!

My absolute favorite, hands down, is my grandfather's handmade vanilla ice cream. There is nothing else like it on Earth...and I've tried hard to find a comparison! :-)
Happy Birthday!!

The Mellos said...

Happy Belated Birthday! Love the pic of you and your sis. As a summer baby, I appreciate a good ice cream celebration! As far as favorites, they change...often. My current fave is peach (with frozen peaches in it) mixed with Vanilla Bean. It sounds odd, but it's SO good!

Jacki said...

Happy Birthday! My favorite ice cream by far is Cookies and Cream by Breyers- it's the best!

eadaoine said...

sophie said...

Happy Birthday. It sounds like you had a great day.

Since moving to Texas, my favorite ice cream is Blue Bell's Moo-llennium Crunch, a vanilla ice cream with a combination of dark chocolate chunks, creamy caramel chunks, roasted pecan halves, chopped almonds and walnut pieces.

felicity said...

Strangely, I only like ice cream when I'm pregnant and then Peanut Butter Cup is the best! I'd rather have a homemade chocolate chip cookie all the rest of my life.

Happy Birthday! Love your quilts!

Kelly said...

there's this ice cream company based out of santa barbara and they make the most amazing peppermint stick ice cream. i'm not a fan of peppermint candy, but this ice cream is just so yummy! once we move from LA i'm really going to miss being able to get it at the store.

but if i'm being entirely honest, i rarely thumb my nose at any ice cream. :)

happy birthday! i turned 30 a couple of weeks ago.

Trina said...

I'd love a chance to win. Happy belated birthday.

Mandy said...

Happy Birthday, you are in great age company ;-). I love either English Toffee or coffee fudge, yum :-) But it's a bit too cold here for that at the mo, I'll eat some cake for you. TTFN

Tracy T. said...

Green Tea Ice Cream - Delicious!

Lauren H said...

Belated happy birthday to you and your sister! I, too, love coffee ice cream, but my favorite ice cream ever is from childhood - a homemade caramel ice cream that was made by a friend's family cook for the annual Fourth of July celebration we had at the lake! Wish I has a bowl now!!!

Angel said...

Happy Birthday!

My fav ice cream flavor is chocolate butter fudge...I grew up in a family that had the local dairy that packaged milk and ice cream and it was our specialty. (Look up Ritchey's Dairy in Martinsburg, PA if you are ever travelling through central PA!)

I spent years dipping ice cream in the local shop and I came up with some fun combinations with the girls...like if you mix chocolate butter fudge with orange sherbet it tastes like a tootsie roll. oh, ice cream...not the same since I moved away!

Greta said...

Happy Birthday! I use to think coffee was my favorite flavor but then Ben & Jerries started making coffee heath bar crunch and I am in love with it. Hope you had a great birthday!

Joan said...

Happy Birthday!! My favorite flavor of ice cream is Coffee with chocolate swirls...It is nice to see your shining face...

Amy said...

You're a twin? How fun!
I don't think I could possibly choose just one flavor. It all depends on my mood. Mint-chocolate chip, coffee, Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby. I could go on and on...ice cream is my all time favorite dessert. It never disappoints.

Katie Favara said...

Happy Birthday!

My favorite is plain 'ole vanilla... sometimes with caramel topping.

Malmbergs said...

Chocolate with brownie pieces. Yummy!
Happy birthday and enjoy the mid 30's.

Life on 4th Ave said...

Happy Birthday! I would have to day my favorite Ice Cream is White Cake Ice_cream with MMs, Snickers and Kit-Kat. Yes it's a very rich ice-cream, I only get it for special stuff.

Anonymous said...

Happy birthday! I've got a couple of favorites - Tiger's Tail (orange with a dark chocolate ribbon) from a local ice cream shop, and Double Chocolate Malted Crunch - from Thrifty drug store. Does anybody remember the square ice cream scoops for a quarter? I think RiteAid carries this flavor now, since Thrifty is no more.

cnydalynn said...

happy birthday!!!!

vanilla bean with a warm brownie:) yummmo

Jane's Fabrics and Quilts said...

Happy belated birthday! My favorite ice cream is definitely homemade dulce de leche gelato. I only make it a few times a year because it takes so long but it's worth it!

Now you have me wanting to make some...

Pam said...

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Twirl,but the company doesn't make it anymore :-( I miss it so! I had M&M icecream on the way back from the Lake today, and it wasn't the same!

Anonymous said...

Happy Birthday! My favorite is Chocolate Hazelnut Gelatto...mmmmm!

Bree said...

Great giveaway!
I'm a fan of vanilla, because it doesn't clash with any toppings, so you can keep a tub in the freezer and add whatever your whim decides at a moment's notice!

bmcelroy@tampabay.rr.com

Jo Chu said...

My favorite flavor? Ben and Jerry's Milk and Cookies! I hope you have a Happy Birthday.

Jessica said...

Holly said...

My favourite ice cream flavour is vanilla. Just plain, delicious, good quality vanilla ice cream. Yum!

Laurel said...

Happy Birthday! I hope you love the middle age club!
My favorite ice cream is Dreyer's Crunchy cone. yum....wish I had some. A good substitute(and much leaner) would be one of those yummy fabric rolls!

Live a Colorful Life said...

This is going to sound sacrilegious to admit that I never crave ice cream (don't make me into a saint or anything special--I crave LOTS of other stuff). Does that put me out of the running for prizes?

Okay,if I HAVE to choose, it would be something like Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia, or cake batter.

Haha, my word verification is chese (spelled wrong but close enough). Okay, NOW we're talkin'.

DianeY said...

Happy Birthday! And by the way, the definition of middle age grows higher the older you get! And you are definitely NOT middle aged yet!
My absolute favorite ice cream can only be bought in Hawaii, though they will ship it to the mainland by special order! It's called Haupia & it's a rich creamy coconut made by Roselani on Maui! It is truly scrumptious!

Laurie said...

My favorite is Blue Bell's Brownie Fudge Nut WHICH THEY HAVE NOT MADE FOR 2 YEARS! As soon as I get serious about a diet I'll find it.

Laurel said...

i'm going to have to go with chocolate. with some chocolate mixed in. maybe with some chocolate sauce on top.

ok, ok, sometimes i eat peanut butter. in my chocolate. or raspberries. in my chocolate. or mint. in my chocolate. =)

Needled Mom said...

quiltmom anna said...

I love ice cream AmandaJean- I am not sure what my favorite flavor is but my favorite flavors are maple walnut, butter pecan, raspberry cheesecake and strawberry and vanilla ice cream with fresh berries. How is that for choices.LOL
I hope you have had a fabulous birthday - Our family tradition for birthdays is ice cream cake from Dairy Queen as none of us are big cake fans but love ice cream.

Ice cream! Yum! Is there a bad flavor? If pressed, I'd have to go with Hudsonville's Moose Tracks! Sorry, it's only found in Michigan!

Anonymous said...

I've never met an ice cream flavor I didn't like (except maybe the pineapple licorice one a friend and I made in high school). But if I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be Strawberry Cheesecake--yum! Anyway, happy, happy birthday!

Susan V.

Kristy said...

I'm gonna have to try the coffee ice cream recipe, you posted, for my husband. I, on the other hand, absolutely adore peppermint ice cream. the kind with the candies in it. I've only found it in the winter - Dreyers should make it year round :0) just for me! ha ha

Happy Belated Birthday.

Andi said...

I love ice cream with surprise bits in it.
Sometimes, I'll buy a tub of good vanilla ice cream, let it soften a little and add some cookie dough, chopped up chocolates, maybe some marshmallows, and anything else I can think of. Then re-freeze (its nice in a mould) and serve as a dessert.
Divine!!!

Cindy said...

Happy Birthday!!

I have two favorites! My main one is a kind that I have only found made by the generic company that supplies to our local grocery store. It's "White chocolate raspberry Truffle" and is amazing! Just enough sweet, fruit, and chocolate with out being overwhelming!

If I can't find that one, i love Spumoni :)

Unknown said...

Happy Birthday!
My favorite ice cream is my husband's nutty coconut homemade ice cream! Super yummy!

Sara said...

Butter pecan is the current favorite. . . .but when I was a kid, Dad would get out the old churn , buy a block of ice, smash the ice in a burlap bag with the side of the ax, and then we would CHURN. Best in those days was the homemade strawberry. . .maybe partly because there wasn't enough but for a small portion.

Colleen said...

Happy birthday! I cannot pick just one ice cream. Chocolate, vanilla bean, peanut butter, mint, coconut, cake batter, fruity. I LOVE ice cream (as in we served it at our wedding instead of cake). I will take a pass on your favorite, though- not a fan of coffee.

Fabric Fanatic said...

OOps...I forgot to mention my favorite flavor of ice cream....I love BlackRaspberry Chocolate Chunk made by Graeter's in Cincinnati...it is my downfall.

Cascade Quilts said...

Happy birthday! My favorite ice cream would have to be chocolate moose tracks, but chocolate chip cookie dough is a close second.

Julie w said...

My favorite ice cream flavor for in a cone is licorice.

Kristine said...

You are talking about my FAVORITE subject! ICE CREAM! My absolute favorite flavor was Graham Slam by Mayfield - it was graham cracker flavored ice cream with chocolate crunch pieces - I say "was" because they no longer make this flavor. I still look for it every time I pass by the ice cream in the store, though, because one time it made a very brief reappearance! My new favorite flavor is Triple Brownie (Kroger's Private Selection).

Happy birthday! Middle aged? Nah, you're just 20 with 15 years of experience! =D

Georgia said...

Happy Birthday Amanda Jean!!!
Those roll-ups are lovely, especially the dusty one.
Ice cream...mmm...I like coffee too, and when I have a nice creamy vanilla I always think that it just can't be beaten, but my very favourite is peppermint choc-chip. Yum!

Leigh said...

Not to be a copycat, but my favorite is coffee too-- But I'll see your brownie and raise you- a scoop of Nutella!!! To. Die. For.

Emily said...

Happy, happy birthday! Thanks for sharing with us!
As far as ice-cream goes, we love vanilla with ovaltine and butterfinger mixed in.
Sounds weird, but it's just plain delicious!

Allison said...

Have you tried Eddy's (Dryer's in the west) French Silk? Its hard to find but its mocha with big fat chocolate chunks......the best. :) Happy b-day! -Al

Amber H. said...

My absolute favorite flavor of icecream is cake batter with cookie dough mixed in and caramel.

Great, now I want Cold Stone! On the bright side, we're planning on buying an icecream maker so soon I'll have all the yummy icecream I could ever want!

Leisel said...

I LOVE cookie dough ice cream. . . mmmmmmm! Happy Birthday!

Crafty Christina said...

My favorite ice cream is Half Baked by Ben and Jerry's. It's vanilla ice cream, chocolate ice cream with cookie dough chunks and brownie chunks.

Happy Birthday!

alyse christine said...

Happy Birthday, Kinda weird, but my favorite ice cream is Birthday Cake Ice cream. Complete with sprinkles.

Karen said...

Happy Birthday. And 35 is definitely not middle-age. That would make 60 old age. :) My favorite ice cream is chocolate mint with Mocha Almond Fudge running in second place.

berylthepearl said...

Happy birthday, enjoy. My favorite ice cream is Mint Chocolate Chip, a green color, used to be made by a local creamery that I think has gone out of business. I used to buy it in 5 gallon containers! Thanks for the giveawayl..

Happy birthday!! I love (almost) all flavors of ice cream, but my all time top of the list favorite is mint chocolate chip. lately though, I've been digging vanilla with a dash of cinnamon and caramel. yum.

Happy 35th Birthday. I hope it was special for you. My favorite ice cream that comes out near my birthday (December) is Peppermint Stick Ice Cream by Dryers then I add crushed Oreo Cookies on top. YUM! YUM!

Happy Birthday! My favorite ice cream flavor is blue moon, much to the chagrin of my husband, who has a much more sophisticated palate than I do. :o) And 35 is NOT middle-aged! I'm 31 so I don't want to think that I'm that close to it!!!

Happy Birthday! I'm turning 34 next week. It seems like it'll be a fun year.

Haupia (Hawaiian coconut dessert). Sadly, I think you can only get in in Hawaii - at Dave's....their peach is pretty tastey too.

Happy Birthday to you and your sis! How fun! My favorite would have to be Strawberry! Has been since I was a little girl!

Happy Birthday! 35 is a great age. I am an old 35. You are a young 35. My favorite ice cream is Chocolate Coconut. Ginger and chocolate are tied for a close second.

My favorite ice cream flavor is a toss up between Final Four Fudge Dribble, which is vanilla ice cream with whoppers in it; and Omer Tracks, which has m&ms and chocolate covered waffle cone in a vanilla and caramel ice cream. Both are products of the Michigan State University Dairy Store. My husband and I both work there. I'm fortunate (not in the waist size) to work for the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, where said Dairy Store resides. And, yes, sometimes I get free ice cream (much to my pants' dismay). Thanks for hosting a giveaway! And, happy birthday! (35 isn't really middle aged, neither is 39 which is what I'll be for the rest of my life!)

Happy Birthday! Our whole family looooves Umpqua peanut butter chocolate ice cream. But my hands down fave is my homemade Mint Junior Mint. I'm salivating a little as I type it....it's that good! Thanks for the chance to win - I'm just starting to get more adventurous with solids and all the kona colors are so beautiful.
