It’s an ice-cream-like dessert, more common on the East Coast of the US than elsewhere, as far as I know, and in this heat it’s quite handy that we have Nana’s Frozen Custard pretty close to home.

Now I will say this: we deserved this extravagance!  Since we’ve been here we’ve been eating loads of fresh fruit and veg, just like we would at home.  We’ve avoided almost all of the junk food and sweet treats which are so prolific in the South.  You just haven’t seen all of the healthy stuff on the blog because it’s not as interesting. 

So yes, to quench the highly humid heat, we indulged in a few treats: a Cherry Ho, an Apple Pie Blossom & a Banana Split.  These three treats fed five people easily, and the general consensus was that my Cherry Ho was the tastiest.  I certainly thought so. . . 

Just look at all the yummy frozen noms. . .
