July Siggy Challenge-Favorite Summer Treats

JDMRS

The polls have closed and we have selected "favorite summer treats" as our July siggy. So post your siggy here so mobile Bumpies can see them. Near the end of the month there will be another poll where we vote for our favorite. If you're not sure how to post an image or need help creating a signature, please use the help section of the Bump.

I guess I will go first! Nothing better on a hot summer day than beer, especially now that it's summer and I can't have any 

ETA: words are hard

Ryan Lochte is my favorite summer time treat and since its a Summer Olympics year:

Mine is Superman Ice cream- It has been my favorite ever since I was a little kid and didn't realize until recently that you only find it in Michigan where I am from. So yummy!!

My favorite summer time treat is beer and baseball.  Those my baseball will be beer-less for the foreseeable future.

 I pick Balboa Bars! I don't know if they have expanded outside of Balboa Island yet though

DH's family lives in Birmingam, AL, where there is a local popsicle chain called Steel City Pops. They make the most amazing gourmet pops in the world. Flavors come in two categories: fruity and creamy, and their menu is always changing. Regardless of what you get, it's amazaballs.

Since we are going the route of alcoholic beverages here...(I did think twice and almost went with affogato, but rose REALLY is my summer fave lol)

@mrsstuessy we just got a Culvers about 20 minutes from us....I'm slightly obsessed with their cheese curds

My fav summer treat is a peach milkshake from Chick-Fil-A

A Balboa Bar is a block of vanilla ice cream on a stick, dipped in chocolate (that immediately hardens), and covered in whatever topping you want! I always get rainbow sprinkles, DH usually gets Oreo crumbles or nuts, but there's other crushed candy options too. If you've seen the show "Arrested Development," the characters have a frozen banana stand on Balboa Island... most of the real frozen banana stands also sell Balboa Bars

hahaha!! I don't know what I would do without it, there's one at every intersection around here!! I know they sell their coffee & k-cups, but i'm sure it's not the same!

@EnglishTeacherMama  Those ice creams are sooo good! I live, not too far away, in Long Beach and you can find those in a few places in the LA area, but you definitely have to look for them.

Nothing says summer like Rita's! Root beer and vanilla custard gelati please!

MrsNap_515

@theabels  I am craving Rita's now seeing your siggy LOL

@meq124 WHAT!? I'm a newenglander in the middle of nowhere and there are 3 DD's each five minutes from my house.  More than the number of stop lights in town.

meq124

@kjd291 I was looking at your intro again, from the same state as you! That makes you cool in my book Lived in a super small area but there were plenty of Dunks around. Then I moved to the west coast and it's all Starbucks country. It's just not the same!!

MrsNap_515

@JDMRS  did you start a poll for siggy challenge voting yet? just checking to see if I missed anything while I was away!

Schumerator

@MrsNap_515 her profile shows that she has not been on since July 10th - if anyone else wants to take over that'd be good. We can discuss who our favorites are in this thread and then start a new thread with a poll for votes and then discuss August siggy challenge
