BACK STORY
Recently after mowing the lawn on a HOT summer’s day, I felt inspired to combine canned pineapple chunks (juice drained) with cold vanilla ice cream. It was sooooo good!
Sipped the chilled pineapple juice later.
Hopefully, my creative recipe inspires you to make unique combos.
ENJOY!

Hi Bunny! Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a helpful suggestion. Although it’s good to have options, I like to mix it up myself so I can add LOTS of pineapples. YUM x 100!!
Thank you for the suggestion. I have ice cream and can of Pineapple. My brother and I are old and do not want to go out. It is Sunday night, did garden work today. What a great treat.
