Barbra, I’ll be sure to put in a good word for you.

my spatula, thanks so much. And yes, why stop at frozen custard – definitely pie too !!

bethany, funny you should mention key lime pie. I just did a new post on that dessert – and you’ve already commented on that one too ! I admitted to not having been a big fan either, but you and I are both tempted by Chef Futo’s recipe. We’ll have to make it and compare notes !

Jen, awesome, glad you’ve got this page bookmarked. Definitely let me know if you try making the cere at home. And one recipe for rice and beans coming up…. stay tuned !

Hi Kerrin,
You had me drooling all over this morning! What a delightful post! If and when I get to Belize, DandE and Elvi’s will be tops on my list! That Belizean Cere looks delish! Definitely something I will be trying, so I shall bookmark this page. Do you happen to have the recipe for rice and beans as well?
I will email you later to catch up with stuff…
Cheers,
Jen

Oh how i would love to try ceviche in that part of the world! One day! One day! As for key lime pie- i’ve had before nowhere else but in the floriday keys but never really took a liking to it. However, the one pictured above is calling my name… i hear it and I’m listening!

You know, I’ve been thinking that next winter I will go some place warm and sunny for a while. Do you think DandE’s would hire me?

Mowielicious, I’m counting of course ! haha ! Glad I could take you on holiday here, enjoy the last few Belize posts coming up…

Meeta, you said it best !

Emma, that is too funny. I actually giggled when I first noticed that, realizing I couldn’t put the apostrophe in the website address. ha ! Sorry to disappoint. But hey, perhaps I’ll do a post on peanut butter one day, and then I can feature Elvis himself – yum to Elvis’ famous sandwich: peanut butter and bananas. So good.

jkiel, good point ! I did a quick search online and found that the sign was for Jankunu Rum Cream in fact. But I liked your guesses even better

Julia, your two favorite flavors too ? (but of course !) Meanwhile, get this – apparently today (Feb 19th) is National Chocolate Mint Ice Cream Day in the US ! Who knew ?!

Kristi, how lucky that you live so close to San Pedro (and to Elvi’s !). Deep sea fishing and eating your catch sounds pretty ideal to me. Thank *you* for sharing !
