Scooper Bowl!


Tonight was the Scooper Bowl in downtown Salem. What a blast! This is the second year we have gone. You pay a fee ($5.00 for adults, $3.00 for kids) and then get to sample ice cream from local vendors. You get trays and the go to each table and receive small cups with different flavors. It is held on the common, and they have face painting and a band playing.

Here are our Ben & Jerry's yummies and our tickets. There was "Chocolate Chocolate" which was chocolate with brownies in it, "Strawberry Cheese Cake" and "Lemon Sorbet"

Here are the selections from Treadwell's. There was Black rasberry with chocolate chunks and Mint Chip.Ali's favorite was the black rasberry with chocolate chunks. She declared it "The best ice cream ever"

We were going to get more (we still had three more vendors plus unnumerable returns) but the lines were very very long. We decided to get Ali's face painted. She decided on a ladybug on her armWe were even lucky enough to have Will out visiting before his deployment to Afghanistan, so he was able to experience the Scooper Bowl at Salem Common!

A great night had by all!
