I sure love the buttercream egg. Brings back childhood memories.
Ice cream is great and the kids that work there are super great and friendly.
I remember this store when I was small. When you first walked in the store, you walked past nuts. What an aroma! Back then the candy was made just outside of town. What smells, what flavors. The ice cream parlor in the back that sold ice cream by the pound. We always took lots of money when we went to Gardner's .
