(Bummed that it closed too) We went once a week when I was home and started talking to the owners. Apparently it was the first one out side of the Rochester area.<br /><br />It was in a bad location though - hard to get to and not much parking.<br /><br />I love their custard, although I think I would choose ice cream if I could only have one.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07818217668962552261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119551091046515221.post-62584221515926969602009-09-05T21:32:10.374-04:002009-09-05T21:32:10.374-04:00Dress shopping sounds like so much fun!

I left you a message about my dress thoughts ;)<br /><br />Reeni- There is nothing better than a good PB cup :)<br /><br />Stephanie- thanks so much! as for your custard question... here is what the abbotts site says: One reason frozen custard is noticeably more creamy and wholesome than standard soft-serve ice cream is the churning process inside the machine. The beaters inside the barrel of our frozen custard machines turn much slower than those in a soft-serve machine. The slower churning prevents excessive air from being mixed into the custard as it freezes. <br /><br />Jessica- it's funny how that works! The one I 99% am going with was the first one I saw at this shop!<br /><br />Megan- I didn't realize that Abbotts were all over until recently! I thought they were an up here only thing!<br /><br />Diva on a Diet- hahah you and her should get together and go try on dresses all over the place :)stephchowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09033733602903061210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119551091046515221.post-88741424079865044612009-09-03T15:53:37.445-04:002009-09-03T15:53:37.445-04:00I'm with your sister, I would totally get marr...I'm with your sister, I would totally get married again if only for the dress shopping!
