Milk & Honey Ice Cream

Blueberry Yogurt Popsicles

People keep asking me about the weather in New Orleans.  Its hot.  H-O-T....hot.  And it doesn't change.  All summer long, temperatures range from 85 to 95 degrees F with a ridiculous amount of humidity.  It doesn't get cool at night.  It stays hot.  Get the picture?  Luckily the fall is fast approaching and the temperature should start dropping a bit by October. Fall is my favorite season and I am very much looking forward to it.
