I'm somewhat of an Ice Cream afficionado with a particular interest in creamy homemade varieties. Gabrielle Chocolates and Ice Cream definitely is among the best I've had.

I found it enjoyable to look at all the pictures of young children with ice cream who later had pictures taken in the exact same place 5 to 10 years later....
