Ever dip your French fries into a Wendy's Frosty for that sweet/salty taste? Yeah, me either, but my oldest does and I always thought there was something wrong with him until I learned that there were lots of Frosty fry dippers out there. Anyway, this has nothing to do with Wendy's, fries or a delicious chocolate Frosty, but it has everything to do with that crunchy, salty/sweet combination of Ben & Jerry's Late Night Snack. Yum! I have been wanting to try this for sometime and finally found it in stock at the grocery this weekend. It is as good as I imagined. The fudge covered potato chips mixed in ice cream, genius! Now I get the whole french fry/Frosty craze! So, the big question now is...which Ben & Jerry's flavor to try next? Suggestions?

Wow. Yum! Get it away from me because I will end up eating the entire jar. Why have I been under the impression all these years that this stuff was over-priced and disgusting? Sure it costs more than peanut butter, but after all it does contain hazelnuts instead of peanuts, as well as skim milk and Cocoa. Thanks to the constant Nutella commercials I have seen all Summer and my 11 year old talking about how good it is, I decided that I would buy the SMALL jar and give it a try. Wow. I put some on a slice of my Sunflower Breakfast Bread I got from the Farmer's Market yesterday and now I am going to have to leave the house in fear that if I stay I will sit here and eat the entire loaf....along with all the Nutella. Dang it, why didn't I go ahead and buy the LARGE jar??

Found the Julie & Julia  Bruschetta recipe, tried it, and LOVED it! Even the five year old who doesn't eat tomatoes, ate this. It was buttery, salty, tomato(y), garlic(y) and just one of the most fabulous things I have ever eaten! I have the recipe blogged at Ridiculously Delicious . Trust me, this is one you will want to try!
