My, my, my. Key Lime Pie.
.
Though we're hanging at the farm in good ol' Western PA, we're celebrating with so many on their annual Spring Break trips with a return of our key lime pie gelato this weekend! It's the most surprising mix of flavors and seriously so delicious. We use real key lime juice (shipped from the Florida Keys!) in our classic gelato base with a graham cracker crumble. It's reminiscent of the classic Florida version of key lime. And you guys, I love it's sweet and tart flavor, especially in the cold, creamy gelato you know and love!
.
We also did our due diligence to the peanut butter lovers out there and brought back another round of Buckeye! Our most peanut-butter serving gelato, complete with chocolate chips and an extra swirl of peanut butter has been such a favorite. It's a peanut butter dream.
.
We've updated the shop for spring, too. Complete with new flavors and scents, we're stocked with the cutest watercolor cards from Emily Lex Studios. I love these for birthday cards and general notecards, and I think you'll love them, too!

Now, some links + finds from the week:
- As the weather has warmed, we're spending more time outside, and bird-watching is a favorite at my house. I know I've shared this before, but I highly encourage you to download the Merlin Bird ID App by Cornell University. It listens for birds and tells you the bird making the sounds you hear. It's so fun!
- This is the cutest video of a chimpanzee trimming his nails!
- We're raising a 12-year-old, and stories like this are just staggering. I'd love your thoughts on social media and teens? Give them a taste or keep it away all-together? We're staying as far away as possible, but our pre-teen is always asking.
- Oh my word, I'm going to try and recreate these delicious steak burrata crostini.
- If you haven't heard, we're releasing another course! Shorter and sweeter, this Farmstead Gelato Short Course is our exact recipe and method for making our gelato! Get on the waitlist if you're interested! It's geared for on-farm production/high-production and our recipe is based on our 15-gallon vat!

We hope to see you at the farm shoppe this weekend, Saturday 10am- 2pm!
Have the best weekend!
