Cows Ice Cream-Day 39, July 29

Today was a fun day exploring some of P.E.I. on our own. We headed over to Cows Ice Cream Factory to take a self guided tour.

The first Cows opened in Cavendish, P.E.I. in 1983. In 2008 Cows was voted the best ice cream in Canada. I agree, it is delicious. Today they have 32 flavors – I like Mooey Gooey and Wooey Cowey!

Cows is known for their cute t-shirt designs. The first graphic designer, Marc Gallant, designed the first one in 1987.  He created several “whimsical cow themed designs” for 7 years until his passing in 1994.  Shortly after his passing, the Cows’ President, Scott Linkletter, hired another Graphic Designer, Shawn Mader, to continue the line. From 1994 until today, Shawn has designed over 150 special Cow designs. They put them on t-shirts, mugs, stickers, key rings, pencils, socks, sleepwear and so much more!

After touring this location in Charlottetown, we headed over to their location in Avonlea to have some ice cream with all of the Adventure Trekers.

Thank You, Everett, Jeanette, Tom, and Rebecca The ice cream was delicious!

Here’s something about their ice cream – it is NOT diet friendly! 🙂 🙂 🙂

During this 39 day Adventure Trek, Zoom Zoom gained 13 pounds and I gained 15 pounds! We went so far off our regular routine of eating AND drinking! We usually only drink after lawn work or maybe on special occasions. Here we drank almost EVERY night! Next Trek we do we we’ll be sure we stick to our “Sexy Pace.”

As I am writing this, we are back on track with our regular eating routines and I’m already down 5 pounds! Zoom Zoom has probably lost all 13 pounds! Eating Cows ice cream every time we saw one was one of the reasons we gained weight. I wouldn’t change anything now – just be better next time! :}
