BlogTuesday Field Trip: Peggy’s
Every year I come to Oregon in August and every year since I was very little we’ve always stopped at Rice Hill for ice cream. At some point it became the annual chance to get bubble gum ice cream. I say at some point but I definitely remember picking out bubble gum pieces as a little one. Eventually they stopped putting gum pieces and it just became pink and flavored.
This area of Oregon has the Umpqua Dairy which is much like Tennessee’s Mayfield. Super creamy and local and awesome. They have a blackberry tracks and chocolate peanut butter and bubble gum!
Food rituals are always important. Everyone has them and they are obviously often tied to childhood. Today I added to the ritual by bringing my boyfriend who has never been west of Kansas City. Seeing everything through new eyes is pretty special.
