I pass this place on my way to and from the lake house. When it is open, there is often a line to get in, sometimes the line stretches down the block and tests your resolve about whether the ‘exercise’ is worth the wait. But it’s summer and ice cream is refreshing and tasty.
It was National Ice Cream on Sunday, July 20th. We celebrated early with an ice cream treat in Paris at Berthillon on Ile St-Louis. It was delicious and there was a line to get a treat, but it was worth it as we waited patiently in the shade with other ice cream lovers on a warm Parisian Friday afternoon.

It’s Friday and today is going to be an amazing day. This morning I am off to Boston to complete my bucket list at Fenway Park, three days and three baseball games, then home to finish summer and getting ready for school to restart in a couple of weeks. Where does summer break go? Making the Days Count, one day at a time, enjoying an ice cream cone while it’s summer.
What’s your favorite flavor?
Have a blast at the ballpark! And I’d say ANY ice cream is “good eats”!
Thank you. It was a great game. My team lost but the game went down to the last at bat. You can write a better ending. I have two more games and I might be able to squeeze in some ice cream! Thank you for stopping in! Keep making your days count.
Ohhh! Love a close game!
Thanks, Clay!
Ha, ha, ha, Clay! Funny – that’s my favorite exercise too! You got ice cream in Paris on ice cream day? That’s awesome! Enjoy Fenway!
Yes ma’am we did. I had some unique flavors – pineapple and basil scoop and a plum cassis scoop both were delicious and very French. My problem when I eat ice cream, I can’t stop lifting!
I like an ice cream: but not too big. Enough is enough!
Love ice cream. Maybe too much. It’s been a nice treat this summer!
I LOVE ice cream. There is no such thing as bad ice cream and it’s all worth waiting for in my book. There might be one or two bad flavors, but those are easily avoidable by their neon colors. Enjoy Boston, it’s a wonderful town.
I couldn’t agree more! Happy Friday.
