Peace, Love and Ice Cream

As soon as we landed in Vermont, we headed to the Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Factory in Waterbury, VT.

The factory tour goes over the history of the company (very inspiring), the mission of the company and how they make their ice cream.  They even have a graveyard for their retired ice cream flavors (the bottom 5 sellers each year are retired).

Miz Jelena's Sweet Potato Pie ice cream grave marker. Yuck! No surprise there.
The best part of course was the free sample at the end of the tour!  The flavor of the day was Triple Carmel Chunk. YUM!

The first thing I noticed on the drive through Vermont was the pure beauty of the state and its funky vibe.

Vermont will definitely be a place we'll come back to!

  1. Vermont is wonderful, I agree!!! Did you get a Ben & Jerry's cookbook? Their ice cream is easy to make and very yummy if you have an ice cream maker. Amy
