2014 Ice Cream Tour #12- Whitey's Ice Cream

I am going to say it right away, Whitey's was my favorite place so far in the 2014 Ice Cream Tour! We actually ate here about a 2 weeks ago and all I can think about is going back and getting a "Boston!"

The kiddo's got ice cream cones in a dish- again my son got a chocolate ice cream while my daughter got a strawberry sherbet. The real crowd pleaser is Whitey's "Boston" which is a shake with a sundae on top. You might scratch your head and think no way but when you combine the flavors we did your mouth will be watering to try it!

Our "Boston" starts with a peanut butter shake (yes, still on the peanut butter kick) on the shake is a scoop of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup ice cream and then on that is peanut butter drizzle! (Please never ever tell me how many calories are in one... I would run for an hour to eat one though! Yes, they are that good)

Yum, Yum, Yum- WE LOVE ICE CREAM!

Whitey's is a local shop in the Quad Cities. I believe there are only about 11 stores in Iowa and Illinois all within 50ish miles. Yes, it is worth it to travel to come and try this ice cream- You must try to create your own "Boston" creation! Let me know what type of combination sounds good... I can go try it for you if you want. :)

Whitey's is the place we take our guests from out of town! The kids even make sure it happens when we have a new guest, they will not let us forget! When my husband and I were visiting to see if God was calling us to the Quad cities we tried Whitey's and have been hooked ever since.

So who is coming to visit me? Who wants Whitey's?

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.
