It was getting close to suppertime, and the kids were all starving after a full day of playing outside. As I headed into the kitchen to start a pot of water for the pasta, I remembered something my mom had told me many times.
"Start with dessert so you don't get too full to have any."
Side note: my mom is the best.
So instead of pulling the family size box of elbow noodles out of the pantry, I reached for the ice cream cones. I called all four kids into the kitchen and watched their eyes grow huge as I scooped Kemps ice cream into sugar cones and handed them out. Katie chose Mint Cow Tracks, Nano and Anna went with Caramel Fudge Cow Tracks, and Davy got to try the Caramel Cow Tracks.
