In the summer of 2020, I leaned hard into gardening—and ended up growing the freshest mint I’ve ever tasted. That discovery led to this homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream, which quickly became my summer obsession. I also discovered the real secret to successful gardening, to which I’m going to reveal to you right now, …
I’m going to save your life with Lime Margarita Freezies. Yes. These are just like Mr. Freezies, but with margaritas inside of them. (Yes. Tequila is included.) Margaritas are awesome, but you know what sucks? Making margaritas. I know; it’s not rocket surgery. But keeping around the materials, to have ice on hand, to whip …
