McConnell’s Fine Ice Creams CEO Discusses Company Challenges, New Flavors, and Participating in The Taste

As I write this post, I’m scraping the bottom of a pint of ice cream with a metal spoon. I’m reaching for any remaining drops that I can scoop together to give me even the smallest taste of the flavor I just devoured. I had inhaled a pint of Sea Salt Cream & Cookies ice

The Rustic Tart Invites You to Have Some of the Best Desserts in Norfolk

I didn’t know what to expect when visiting Norfolk. While I have a friend who went to college in a neighboring city and another friend who relocated to Norfolk, my only frame of reference for the city is what I’ve been told. I never had the chance to create a first-hand opinion let alone establish

Humphry Slocombe Opens their First LA Shop in Venice This Saturday August 18

Think of the most rewarding feeling you’ve ever experienced in your life. Maybe it’s waking up to the love of your life, welcoming your first child, or getting the keys to your new home. There could even be the incredible chance that you’ve experienced all those moments or you’ve discovered a few that may be

Downtown LA Gets It’s Own Waffle Master in The Dolly Llama

“I need more ice cream in my life.” I caught myself thinking that the other day while driving through Downtown Los Angeles. Sure it was a sentence I whispered to myself, but there was a brief moment when I thought about shouting it through the window while coming off the 110 freeway. Does it make

Whether You’re Single or in a Relationship, Celebrate Valentine’s Day with Phillip Ashley

Last year I had a boyfriend for Valentine’s Day and we didn’t do anything. Not a single thing. This year I’m single and I plan on doing the exact same thing except I don’t have to buy an extravagant gift for my significant other. Instead, I’ll be at home editing photos, writing a blog post,

Brentwood Welcomes Winston Pies and You Should Too

There’s a certain level of respect that should be given to the people who tirelessly go after their dreams. Granted, the dreams I’m referring to are the kind that won’t impact others negatively. Jim Jones and those alike, I’m not talking about you. I’m talking about the kind of people who have the ability to

The Loop: Handcrafted Churros Brings Mermaids and Beyoncé Together in Westminster

When it comes to Southern California, there are a few things that rarely run out: sunshine, workout studios, traffic, and churros. While each one of those isn’t exactly welcome in my world, the churros will always have a place with me. Whether I’m desperate and grab some from the freezer aisle to make at home

Downtown LA Gets Another Doughnut and Fried Chicken Shop with Astro

Fried chicken and doughnuts (or donuts if you’re not feeling so fancy) is such a beautiful combination that almost seems like the two were destined to be. The dynamic duo is something amazing like milk and cookies or the Virgin Mary and her donkey. Whoever brought those items together gets nothing but credit and acclaim

All Black Everything at Little Damage in Downtown LA

It may only be March, but if you need a reminder: summer’s coming. Sure we have a few months before jackets and sweat pants turn into crop tops and short shorts, but until then the best way to get in the mood for the hottest of the four seasons is with soft serve ice cream!

Wanderlust Creamery Wants You to Travel the World Through Ice Cream

Sometimes ice cream is just what it is and that’s fine. There are times when you walk into an ice cream shop, peer into the glass case, choose a flavor, and what you get is simply what you asked for. But then there are times when ice cream does more than you expected. It can
