Spruce Pond Creamery

It is a family tradition to walk to the local ice cream parlor at the end of the school year for a supper of ice cream.


The local choice for us is the Spruce Pond Creamery on King St in Franklin, MA. The sign was recently re-freshed to include the fact that they now offer beer and wine in the restaurant. Their flatbread sandwiches and pizza are very good. Adding the beer and wine option for the accompaniment is good.

Their ice cream take out windows are where we headed on Tuesday.

Ice cream for supper? Why not?

A banana split provides multiple food groups (dairy, nuts, and fruit) with more than enough calories for a meal.


It was good! We only do this at the end of the school year so this is a real treat and not a regular staple of our diet.

What special food treat do you enjoy?

sherku: Hand Cranked Ice Cream

ready the crank in Weikert
the ice man cometh
July 3rd for Walt's birthday




The Bastian's have a tradition of hand cranking a batch of home made ice cream on Doug's father's birthday.

Coming home from Weikert 2 years ago, we bought our own ice cream maker and have put it to good use for some family gatherings. The time was for Carolyn's birthday in 2005.
