Nona's Is In Town



Nona's has finally arrived to Scituate!  I have been waiting for months after hearing a "rumor" that Nona's was moving in.  Scituate was full of great eats.  However, homemade ice cream was something it was lacking until last weekend.  Yuuuuummmmm......  Now I don't have to do a blog on taste testing the best ice cream in the area...because it has been found!

Who would have thought that in mid-March the temperature would have consisted of  seventy degree days of sunscreen, shorts, and ice cream!  After hearing about the grand opening at Nona's last weekend I couldn't help but treat myself to an ice cream dinner.  Yes, dinner....   A coffee Oreo sundae as I watched the sunset overlooking Scituate Harbor in March.  It was a good evening!

I am all about homemade food so when I heard that Nona's as coming to town I was psyched.  Plus the  first job of my life  was at an ice cream store that made their own ice cream: The Icecream Smith-Dorchester. I saw an add on my high school bulletin board for help wanted.  I applied, got the job, made less than five dollars an hour, ate ice cream  all day long, and somehow didn't gain a pound thanks to the wonderful metabolism I had back then.  It was a good start to the working world, have a sense of independence  and I could''t have asked for a better first job.  If you ever get to to the Icecream Smith their chocolate chip and chocolate are my favorites.  Say hi to Dave for me!  When I walked into Nona's it brought back all these memories of myself at my first job.  Some high school girl scooping ice cream, hoping it wouldn't  topple over, and most importantly serving home made quality ice cream from the heart.

Enjoy Scituate!  Homemade ice cream is the best!

  2. I could go for a nice big scoop of ice cram also. The beach and ice cream go well together. Good luck to Nonas.
