It is refreshing to have our youngest daughter, Christine, and her husband, Ben, both born-and-raised Syracuse kids, back in our home with their children for a season. The best part is reexperiencing the imagination of child play. Their play rekindles memory of my own “childish” actions. It was 1957, thereabouts. The Russians placed Sputnik into orbit. I was a devout fan of Flash Gordon on this new-fangled gadget called the television. I remember sitting up late one night with my mother and watching a black-and-white movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still, first viewed in theaters in 1951, but now being broadcast on TV the first time. It was an intervention of sorts. An Alien from another galaxy is sent to Earth to warn inhabitants against the misuse of nuclear power. Earth was put on notice that it would be destroyed if it couldn’t live peacefully. In 1958 NASA began the Mercury Project. Its mission was to put a man into Earthorbit. Finding itself behind in the space race, the US pushed for exploration as a result of the ongoing Cold War. The imagination of NASA scientists was not limited to engineers. I draw your attention to the image and ask: “What do they have in common?” Mom left my year-younger brother, Craig, and myself home to tend our three-year-old sibling, Scott, while she ran to the neighbor’s for sugar. That combination was always explosive. To us, mother’s new electric dryer looked like a space ship. Craig and I hoisted Scott into the dryer and closed the hatch! The problem was: WE DIDN’T KNOW HOW IT OPENED! Luckily, we didn’t know how to turn on the appliance or Scott would have burned up on reentry! He was trapped and now screaming, awaiting Mom’s return. Not knowing the meaning of the word “beratement” then, I soon knew its fury! It’s tough being the oldest. This year marks the 50th Anniversary of Man’s Landing on the Moon. I remember exactly what I was doing and where I was! Perhaps you do, too. I celebrated the event once, with the As a younger delivery of Christine. Jayne did all the work, but I was in charge boy, my brother of timing. She was born July 20, 1987. Eighteen years earlier in and I thought 1969, preparing to leave for Germany to serve a mission for my our new dryer church, I was learning language skills in Provo. Black-and-white looked like a space ship! TVs, normally taboo, were authorized. It was in the wee hours of the AM, local time. Neal Armstrong wrote a prepared statement: “One small step for a man. One giant leap for mankind.” In the excitement of the moment he left out the single-letter word “a.” You know the rest of the story! For many, now, this story is a given; not having lived it. I felt your frustrations with the D-day celebrations this year. Ask one present on July 20, 1969 to tell you his or her story! You may not have lived the event, but it is part of your heritage. Michael Gailey, Mayor

Community Question Corner BY PAUL ROBERTS, CITY ATTORNEY
Question: Who is REALLY allowed to drive in a Road Closed – Local Traffic Only zone? Answer: With Summer in full swing, construction season is upon us. That means potentially disruptive road closures. Road construction crews will be performing maintenance, utility, and resurfacing projects until well into the Fall. When you come upon a “Road Closed – Local Traffic Only” sign, you may be tempted to travel through the work zone, even if you probably don’t qualify as “local traffic.” One does not become “local traffic” by virtue of living near where construction is conducted. Unless: (1) you are driving to or from a residence located inside the work zone, or (2) the work zone constitutes the only road access to your home, then you are not permitted to drive there. This includes those who live close to the work zone and will have to endure a detour during construction. Unnecessary traffic increases hazards to workers and puts your vehicle at unnecessary risk. Updates on City projects are found online at: https:// syracuseut.gov/232/Streets, or you can sign up for automatic notifications using the Public Work’s Notify Me® feature on the City website.

Public Works Update Keeping Water Ways Clean When working on or repairing a vehicle at your residence, it is a good practice to have rags, old towels, visqueen, a drip pan, and/ or oil absorbent (kitty litter) readily available for any spills in case an accident happens. Do not spray or wash down any debris from the driveway into the curb and gutter because that leads into our storm drains. When deciding to wash your vehicles, the best management practice would be to take it to a local car wash; however, sometimes we like to do things at home. Place the vehicle onto the grass to wash. This will allow the dirt, detergents, and the water to soak or percolate into the lawn and not into our storm drain system. Did you know that 1 quart of oil can contaminate up to 2 million gallons of water? Thank you for helping keep our water ways clean.
Summer Watering Please follow recommendations from the Division of Water Resources “Weekly Watering Guide” https:// conservewater.utah.gov/guide.html. You may also consider getting a smart clock for your sprinkler timer. If you do so, you may be eligible for a 50% rebate (up to $150 max) from Utahwatersavers.com when you purchase an eligible Water Sense Smart Controller. Smart controllers reduce water waste by automatically adjusting how often and how long a landscape is watered based on local weather and landscape conditions.

Each year during July 4th celebrations, thousands of people, most often children and teens, are injured while using consumer fireworks. Despite the dangers of fireworks, few people understand the associated risks. According to the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) Fireworks start an average of 18,500 fires per year, including 1,300 structure fires, 300 vehicle fires, and 16,900 outside and other fires. These fires caused three deaths, 40 civilian injuries, and an average of $43 million in direct property damage. Please follow these safety tips from the National Safety Council (NSC) for a fun and enjoyable 4th of July celebration: • Never use fireworks while impaired by drugs or alcohol •
Never allow young children to handle fireworks
•
Older children should use fireworks only under close adult supervision
•
Anyone using fireworks or standing nearby should wear protective eyewear
•
Never light fireworks indoors
•
Only use fireworks away from people, houses and flammable material

RC Willey's 6th Annual Charity Bike Ride The Ride for the Kids charity event is sponsored by the RC Willey Store in Syracuse. We have partnered with Make-AWish Utah to help raise funds for kids with life-threatening medical conditions. Over the past 5 years, we have raised $100,000 to grant wishes for kids. We have three different bike rides that include a 25, 50 and 100 mile "Century" ride. They all begin at the Syracuse RC Willey, and travel to Antelope Island. The ride is heavily sponsored and supported by numerous businesses. Our goal in 2019 is to raise $35,000. 100% of all registrations and donations go to the Make-A-Wish Utah chapter. Please come support this worthy cause.
MEET ETHAN
He enjoys what most 14 year olds do: music, friends, basketball and his dog. Ethan is also the recipient of many heart surgeries in his young life. Help us raise money to keep Ethan leading a healthy life.
This year's Wish Kid is Ethan who was born May 18, 2005 to Shane and Jennifer Lowe. Ethan was born with the congenital heart disease of pulmonary atresia, a hypo plastic right ventricle, and a couple other smaller issues. He is a true miracle boy who underwent 2 Cath labs, a thoracotomy and open heart surgery all by the time he was just 1 year old. Since then, he has experienced many miracles with his heart performing well thus delaying his inevitable pulmonary valve replacement. While his pulmonary valve will require replacements throughout his life, (one which his cardiologist expects to be fairly soon), his prognosis is good and he leads a healthy, fun life.
Ethan has a 10-year-old brother named Oliver and they are the best of buds! He also has a miniature dachshund named Jack who is getting rather old. Ethan loves to listen to music, hang out with friends, play basketball, design clothing and shoes, and travel as well as spend time with his family. He plays the trumpet in his Farmington Junior High Jazz band and was just elected to a 9th grade class officer. He is also a 4.0 student who excels in life.
Ethan has a heart of gold and is friendly and kind to everyone. His personality is magnetic and he always makes others feel important. Ethan wants to attend an Ivy League College and has big dreams for the future. He wants to become a Heart Surgeon or a fashion designer, and he is very loved by his family.
OUR 2019 GOAL IS $35,000! JOIN US! WE'D LOVE YOUR HELP! To register for this event or donate, visit www.rcwilley.com/ride

AMERICA? BY JERRY HIATT

"..if you have the time and want to see America, drive. "
E
arlier this year I enjoyed a winter trip to Florida and a few days in the sun and watching Phil, the local Alligator, swim in the small lake behind Julie’s (my daughter) house looking for lunch. During the same stay, I watched as NASA launched a rocket into space carrying a communications satellite into orbit. Soon it was time to take a “red eye” flight back to SLC and home to good North Ogden.
through Valley Forge in the Wintertime? Have they felt the overwhelming sadness of Antietam? Have they been to Little Rock Candy Mountain or gone fishing on Panguitch Lake? There is so much more to America than the inside of an airplane and free peanuts or cookies. I’m not saying to stop flying, but if you have the time and want to see America, drive.
As we made our approach into SLC, I was able to see a little bit of Utah and I was struck by the thought that I had traveled nearly 2000 miles across America and had only seen about 100 miles of this country. I wonder how many people who live in this great land of ours have seen it, or even bothered to look at our country. Other than the roads to and from the airport or the designer destinations they paid handsomely for, did they really see America?
There is really no excuse (in my opinion) for not driving across this country if you have the time, a good GPS and camera. Put some air in the tires, have Charly, your mechanic, change your oil and do a safety check on your car, buckle up the kids and spouse and head on out. Be prepared for potty stops and hearing the question “are we there yet” several times. Electric car? No problem. There are now several APPs that show the nearest charging station. Get out the maps and take a blue road trip across our country.
Did they see the little cafe in rural Utah, where you can “eat here, get gas”? The world’s largest ball of rubber bands? Have they seen the old North church, or the site where the “shot heard ‘round the world” was fired? Have they wandered
Why go through all this trouble when you can hop on an airplane and enjoy the speed and convenience of a few hours to your designation, and a rental car with free mileage?

Small town parade
Let me ask a few questions. Do you know how wide the Mississippi River is if you fly over it? You can never understand the vastness of the Great Plains if you only see them from 35000 ft. Can you see the hard work and spiritual roots of rural America at 35000 ft. and 500 MPH? Take time to enjoy a night at the “No Tell Motel.” Enjoy a breakfast or two, over easy, two slabs and two “Jacks” at the grill across the street, served by the owner/server/dishwasher/cook. Do you know how deep Crater Lake is, or how wide the Impact Crater is, without seeing them? Take the opportunity to drive the “Highway to the Sun.” While you’re there, take a hike up to one of the glaciers in Glacier National Park. Can you really understand how much damage was caused when Mt. St. Helens erupted without seeing it? Take time to drive the El Camino Real along the California coast. Go further east and, if so inclined, stop at a winery. Drive the “Million Dollar” highway from Durango to Silverton. Or better yet, take the narrowgauge Train along the same route.

Arches National Park, Utah Small town Northeast Crater Lake, Oregon You don’t get to know America by clubbing or looking on Wikipedia. America is not all beautiful people dancing and enjoying beverages. Chances are those people have never seen Mt. Rushmore (other than pictures). You can’t understand why America is called the “Worlds Bread Basket” unless you drive by the endless cornfields in Indiana. I marvel at the vast crops of wheat in our country’s mid-section. Drive by the cattle ranches in Montana and see why we have meat, not only for ourselves, but can help other nations feed their people. Travel up north and see the oil fields and rigs of the Dakotas. On the way there, stop and see the Devil’s Tower. Pause for a moment at the monument showing the last stand of General Custer. Go further west and enjoy the beautiful Yellowstone National Park. Or turn east and see the Land of a Thousand Lakes”. As you travel these United States, you will not see any red or blue markers, you will only see the United States of America. Take time to enjoy America. Have some ice cream at the Dairy Queen or Frost Top. Have a buffalo burger and a side of onion rings at the Greasy Spoon Cafe.

Watch the Demolition Derby and Rodeo. Eat a corn dog with plenty of mustard. Have some cotton candy and snow cones. Try a deep-fried twinkie or pickle. Suck it up and have some funnel cake. Stop at the local Rexall, sit at the soda fountain and have a Cherry Coke, or an over the top Chocolate Malt; better yet have a freshly made ice cream sundae or banana split. Go watch a ball game at the local park. Watch a small town 4th of July parade with all the horses, tractors, bands and bicycles all decorated in red, white and blue. Travel to our Nation’s bad lands and see where Dinosaurs once ruled. Use a little imagination and picture yourself creeping up on a herd of Buffalo, armed with nothing but a bow and arrows, possibly a spear. While you’re there, watch for the hazards of nature: rattle snakes, ground hogs, and things like that. You cannot know how big the Bingham
Copper Mine is unless you see it. Or, why the mountains of South Dakota are called the Black Hills unless you see them. You don’t know how small the town of Sturgis, South Dakota is unless you go there. You will never appreciate the beauty of the fall season the Northeast part of our nation unless you go there. It will be hard to enjoy the hospitality and food of the south without being there. Want barbecue? Head to Kansas, Texas or Memphis. Go watch a rocket launch in Florida or look for new aircraft in Area 51 of Nevada. Go to the Brickyard in Indianapolis and watch the races. Go to Cheyenne and visit the Rail Museum. Travel to Omaha, Nebraska, and watch the College Baseball World Series. You can’t get to know America by looking down on it. America is a place that must be experienced to understand.

West Point Pharmacy BY RYAN SPELTS
Seth Mauchley followed in his family's footsteps of entreprenuers and started his own pharmacy that focuses on personalized service.
F
Pharmacist and business owner Seth Mauchley is proud to offer his customers hard to find medications that larger pharmacies aren't able to keep in stock.
INFO Business: Pharmacy Address: 3024 West 300 N Suite D West Point Phone: (385) 999-6979 westpointrx.com
or generations, Seth Mauchley’s family have been entrepreneurs while Seth watched them have the freedom and flexibility of owning their own business. Because of those examples, when Seth graduated from pharmacy school in 2014, he knew he would likely open his own pharmacy. After spending several years working for larger pharmacies, most recently at Winegar’s in Clearfield, he made the move and opened a new independent pharmacy in West Point named West Point Pharmacy. He and his wife, Kara, are expecting their first child together but they brought three each to the relationship, so they will soon have seven kids. That is quite the handful for new business owners, but so far it is working well. Seth is excited to bring something different to the pharmacy world. He has seen how bigger corporate pharmacies have limitations on how they operate and are able to treat patients. Most of the time the larger pharmacies have policies and rules that prevent pharmacists from being able to treat patients in the best possible way. At West Point Pharmacy, they know patient’s names and
also get to know their needs so that they can offer the best treatment and service on an individual basis. Sometimes larger pharmacies are rushed and don’t take the time to personalize service. The advantage of West Point Pharmacy is when a patient comes in, they have the chance to visit with the pharmacist and ask any questions they may have so they can be comfortable with their treatment plan. Even when things get hectic and busy, Seth says he always reminds himself to slow down and take time to listen to the patient and to make sure he is serving them in the best way. Another huge advantage to a smaller pharmacy is that from time to time pharmacies run out of a particular medication. While a larger company might have rules mandating where medication can be purchased from, West Point Pharmacy can call other distributors and keep their inventory filled. One example he gave is that a medication called Bupropion has been in short supply recently and many of the larger pharmacies are simply out of stock. He has been able to keep it in stock because he has multiple suppliers who have helped him to do so. He has had several patients transfer all of their prescriptions over to him because of that one medication. He also mentioned that for
the past couple of years, a new shingles vaccine, Shingrix, has been difficult to obtain. Where there was a long waiting list of patients at the big chains, West Point Pharmacy has been able to provide the vaccine even though supplies are still limited. One final example is a thyroid medication called NatureThroid, which has been difficult to obtain but West Point Pharmacy has it in stock. This access is important for two reasons. First patients don’t have to go without necessary medications which could cause them harm and, second, they don’t have to be switched to a replacement medication which could end up costing them more. Often alternatives are expensive brands that insurances don’t cover so the patients have to cover most of the costs on their own. By supporting locally owned businesses like West Point Pharmacy, it keeps money in our economy and keeps our community thriving. Good news is that moving your business to a smaller pharmacy doesn’t cost you anything more. Usually drug prices are the same no matter the pharmacy because prices are set by the insurance companies. We are glad to have West Point Pharmacy nearby and encourage you to give them a try when you fill your next prescription.

What is a Umbrella Insurance? By Roger Grow
Umbrella Insurance is a personal liability policy that protects above and beyond the limits on home, car, and other personal insurance policies. It’s an inexpensive way to protect your financial future. Policies for $1,000,000 in coverage typically cost $16 to $25 a month. You may know of someone or a family that has been involved in a tragic accident that resulted in major, longlasting injuries or death. I thought I knew what it meant when someone said there are worse things than death, but I did not until I watched someone deal with the turmoil of a major injury with the ongoing financial, emotional, spiritual and physical stress they went through. In general terms, the Umbrella Policy is $1,000,000 of additional liability insurance that acts as an umbrella over existing coverage. It is in addition to other policies in-force which have to meet specific coverages guidelines, to qualify. Higher limits of up to 5,000,000 are also available. I have counseled many involved in youth activities, scouting or
those who have recreational vehicles that they should have Umbrella Policies. Here are three real-life examples: (names have been changed) 1. Sarah was meeting friends, but couldn’t remember what time. She sent a quick text to check. With her eyes on her phone instead of the road, she didn’t see the bicyclists in the crosswalk until it was too late. Both cyclists sustained serious injuries requiring hospitalization and rehabilitation. After Sarah’s auto liability limits were exhausted, she was held personally responsible for their medical bills. - Claim: $625,000 2. The Morgan family was in their front yard when their 81-year-old neighbor, Stewart, came to visit. The family’s gregarious golden retriever ran to greet him. As the man bent down to say hello, the dog jumped up and knocked him over. Stewart fell backward, breaking his arm and hip and hit his head on the sidewalk. He was rushed to the hospital but ultimately succumbed
to his injuries. The family’s personal umbrella policy covered medical expenses and ongoing litigation once their underlying home insurance was exhausted. Claim: $1 MM 3. Zach found leftover 4th of July fireworks in the garage. When his parents were asleep, Zach and his friend snuck outside to give them a try. A bottle rocket zoomed offcourse and landed underneath a neighbor’s car, catching it—and their home—on fire. Because of “vicarious parental liability,” Zach’s parents were on the hook for his actions, even though they didn’t know what he was up to. - Claim: $620,000 My wife tells me I worry too much, which is good advice but sometimes stories like these sit in my belly and fester. If you have any concerns please reach out to our agency and see how affordable an Umbrella Policy can be for you.

Lunch, dinner or snack, these sliders will leave everyone happy.
Pull Apart Cheeseburger Sliders BY RYAN SPELTS
I have to admit when I saw a slider for the first time, I thought; “Who on earth would want a really small hamburger? Maybe they are for kids.” By now, though, you have probably realized that sliders can be incredibly delicious bite-sized yumminess. I found the recipe for these on www. readyseteat.com and gave them my own twist; they are awesome. There are signs that meals are enjoyed at our table: a thumbs up from our youngest (Grey) or, other than the sounds of eating, all that is heard is utter silence which means mouths are full. These sliders got full marks; the whole family loved this meal. It took some prep to make but it was worth it. 6-8 slices of American 1 Package Thick Cut Bacon cheese Use a trick I learned a few years back: bake 6-8 slices of Cheddar your bacon. I buy the thick cut bacon and cheese line it out on a cookie sheet (don’t overlap). 2 tbls. melted butter Cook at 400º for 12-20 minutes depending 1 tsp. sesame seeds on how crispy you want it. I do about Coat a casserole pan with cooking spray 13-14 min. Get this started first. Once to prep for the sliders. For the buns, I the bacon is done, turn the oven down to bought the dinner rolls from Costco but 350º. any smaller sized bun should do. Cut them Form the beef into 12 small patties. I mix evenly in half and place the bottoms in an egg into the ground beef and season the casserole pan. Put a slice of cheddar with Lowry season salt. Cook them on a cheese on each bun bottom, it is ok if griddle or frying pan to 95% done - you these overlap. Then, put a slice of dill are still going to bake them. Rest on a pickle on each one, top with the mostly paper towel lined plate. cooked patty and then a slice of American Cheese on each patty. A half slice of bacon Patties: on each one and a dollop of the sauce 1 1/2 pounds of ground beef (recipe on right) and then replace the top 1 egg of the bun. Brush melted butter on each Lowry’s Season Salt to taste bun top and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place in the oven which should now be at Sliders: 350º. Cook for 10 minutes or until cheese 12 dinner rolls is melted. Yummy!
Add some flavor Sauce: ¼ c. Mayonnaise 1 tbls. Ketchup 1 tbls. Finely Chopped Onion (optional) 1 tsp. mustard Stir together mayonnaise, ketchup, onion, and mustard in a small bowl.
We are so grateful to everyone who shares their recipes with us. Last month we made an error and owe an apology to Charlotte Hancey because we ran her very delicious Cherry BBQ sauce recipe last month and somehow in the mix up missed printing the instructions that included how to cook the sauce. If you tried that recipe and found it didn’t work, it was because you needed to cook the sauce and we didn’t include those instruction. We are so sorry to Charlotte for making that error and to any of you who tried that recipe and found it didn’t work.

Ogden's Food Truck Rally One local restaurant owner turned his idea of bringing delicious food to those who live and visit Ogden, into reality.
T
he Ogden Food Truck Rally was started in February of this year, but was born of an idea that has been brewing for several years now. Steve Ballard, the owner of Sonora Grill at the Junction in Ogden and Thai Curry Kitchen on 25th Street, decided to buy an old horse trailer last year and transformed it into a food truck featuring food from Thai Curry Kitchen. They started taking the trailer out to food rallies, farmers markets and other events around the state. They loved the atmosphere and fun of these events and wanted to bring something like it to their hometown of Ogden. Steve, his General Manager, John Thompson, and Marketing Manager Chelsie Toyn all love the Ogden area and are passionate about providing delicious food to those who live here and those that come to visit. They started brainstorming good event locations and ultimately decided to make the Union Station the location for their monthly rally. Toyn says: “The Union Station has been so great to work with and provides the
perfect backdrop for the rally. It is such a historic landmark in the heart of downtown Ogden.” They work tirelessly each month to pull off the event with great food options. The first Friday of every month, from 6:00 - 9:00 pm, the food trucks all park around the fountains near Union Station. There is always something going on in Ogden and the Ogden Food Truck Rally has been the perfect companion to some other great events like Ogden’s Yeti Bash and the Historic 25th Street Car Show. The rally also always coincides with the Ogden First Friday Art Stroll, where local artists display their work throughout shops along 25th Street and inside the Union Station.
WHEN: Friday, July 5, 6:00-9:00 pm (first Friday of every month) WHERE: Union Station in Ogden

Cannery Creamery
(801) 389-6011 2000 N Washington Blvd North Ogden facebook.com/cannerycreamery
BY RYAN SPELTS
Dan Mueller has always had an entrepreneurial flair, owning several businesses in his life, usually a couple at a time. When his
son was born with Cerebral Palsy, he and his wife, Whitney, spent hours and hours waiting in the ICU. During this time, Dan, a seminary teacher by day, rekindled thoughts he had about opening a real ice cream parlor. He started studying and learning all he could about ice cream and how it’s made. He came across a creamery in Pennsylvania that made Ice Cream the old-fashioned way with the son and grandson of dairy farmers who had kept the tradition of old-fashioned ice cream making alive. He reached out to them via Facebook and the friendly owner was willing to help. He invited him out to make ice cream with them for a day and even shared some 100-year-old recipes with Dan to help him get his Utah creamery off the ground. The Cannery Creamery was opened last month and is an amazing destination for a frozen treat. Dan wanted something better than the fast food fare. He wanted something

that people would remember and that would bring people back to the parlor time and time again. He decided to make ingredients the key differentiator. He noticed that most colors and flavors today are created with chemicals. Although artificial flavors can be much stronger, brighter and cheaper, they just don’t taste as good. He said he likes that natural flavors are better for you, but the most important part is they taste better. It is much harder to neutralize chemical flavors than it is to neutralize beet juice which makes their red coloring. He wanted real flavors and real food in his products. He also wanted the best quality. He said it would be a lot cheaper to buy a large tub of blue coloring but they would much rather make it with natural ingredients, which is a theme they stick to. Starting with the ice cream base, they usually make it with 10-12% cream. Aficionados however know that oldfashioned ice cream contained 16% cream and real egg yolk. Dan got with a local dairy to make a custom mixture for them. You can taste the difference in the creaminess and texture. In fact, the ice cream base is made from four simple ingredients: cream, sugar, egg-yolk and skim milk. Some ice cream bases he looked at contained 30+ ingredients. Keeping with the theme of real flavors and food, they use organic sugar cane, no high-fructose corn syrup, as well as fresh fruit, hand-ground vanilla, freshfruit puree and artisan well-water just to name a few of their unique ingredients. In researching chocolate flavors, they found that there were three main cocoa

producers in the US all based in Ohio. After trying all three they thought, “Wow, they are all good.” They created a unique custom flavor mixing the three to make the proprietary Cannery Chocolate flavor. If you like unique flavors, they have some awesome options. I tried the Cookie Monster which has three types of cookies crumbled up in a blue cookie-flavored ice cream. I tried the amazing Cannery Chocolate and the Mango Jalapeño, which is a yummy mango flavor mixed with some heat from peppers for a kick at the back of your throat. Another fun flavor is the Strawberry Balsamic, which is currently outselling their regular strawberry flavor. My favorites were both the Raspberry and Peanut Butter Reese’s flavor - wow! I could also eat the peanut butter ice cream all by itself. They have flavors come and go and introduce new flavors every week. They also make genuine Italian ice with real ingredients.
