Labor Day weekend is a celebration of "the working man."  It's designated as a holiday to observe Americans' economic and social contributions to our country.

Modern festivities surrounding the Labor Day holiday also recognized it as the end of the summer season and the beginning of the NFL season.  Both of these occasions are worthy of social celebrations and Blue Bunny is here to help deliver the best to your guests.

We may never know the real origin of the banana split - the history is messier than the dessert itself.  Pennsylvanians argue it was created in 1904 by a pharmacy student in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.  The city had a big celebration for the banana split's 100 year anniversary in 2004.  The people of Ohio, however, believe the banana split originated in Wilmington, Ohio.  They express this belief with the only Banana Split Festival in the entire country.  The opposing sides stand firmly on their claims so the chances of determining the real history are slim.

Even if the two towns never see eye to eye on the history, there is one thing we can all agree on - the banana split is delicious!  We love every ingredient almost as much as we love the cherry on top.

National Banana Split Day is August 25 and we plan on making our own banana splits to celebrate the holiday.  The original banana split has been altered throughout the years.  We think it'd be fun to create a modern version of the recipe and Blue Bunny has the products to help.

The Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones help keep the dishwashing to a minimum and we'll lift a cone to that!

The middle of August can prompt an array of emotions in students.  On the one hand, they're excited for a new start.  But on the other, they're distressed by the return of textbooks and assignment notebooks.  As parents, we battle this same mix of emotions.  We want out personal time back but we don't want our babies to grow another year older.

This transition requires something to ease our mind.  Blue Bunny can help you relax and chill out.  The recipes on bluebunny.com are perfect for the night before the first day of school.  They distract our minds from the early morning ahead.  We suggest you try the Blue Bunny Ice Cream Lollipop or Blue Bunny Peanut Butter Shake recipes.  Their preparation is simple enough for a child's participation.

Don't be discourage if your busy schedule doesn't permit family bonding time in the kitchen.  The night before the first day is already hectic enough.  For busy nights like these, Blue Bunny has pre-made dessert options.  Sweet Freedom Ice Cream Bars and Peanut Butter Fudge Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches are perfect alternatives to the recipes mentioned above.  You can focus energy on your child rather than the dirty dishes.

Before we know it, the potent aroma of fresh flowers and clean-cut grass will be replaced by the exhaust of snow plows and salt trucks - the summer season never seems to last as long as we'd like.  For this reason, it's crucial to enjoy the ripe pleasures of summer.  It's time we dedicate our spare time to these indulgences and what better week to start than National Smile Week?

Set aside the next seven days to focus on the things which make you smile.  Allow yourself ample time and energy to engage in these activities.  If you love the outdoors but hate the high temperatures, then find a creative way to beat the heat.  You can cool your evening walk with a Bomb Pop or chill an outdoor lunch date with a scoop of Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream.

A fresh, chocolate chip cookie dipped in a glass of milk is the perfect dessert to warm an evening.  The mixture of chocolate, cookie dough and milk comes together in a delicious way.

A Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich is just the treat for a traditional themed celebration.  The combination never gets old!  A more unique celebration calls for Mississippi Mud Ice Cream Sandwiches.  The chocoalte ice cream covered by chewy, chocolate wafers is a more unique recipe for the chocolate-lovers.  We like fruity treats during this time of year so the BIG Double Strawberry Ice Cream Sandwich is our summer staple.

The summer season is perfect for enjoying seasonal fruits.  The ripe berries, juicy melons and colorful peaches add perfect flavor to every dish.  Their natural sweeteners satisfy the sweet tooth in all of us.  Unfortunately, the summer splendor doesn't last so it's important to integrate produce into every meal.  Bluebunny.com has numerous recipes with seasonal fruit ingredients.

After a weekend loaded with selfless trips to the baseball diamond and endless hours at the pool, it's time to enjoy a couple hours of peace.  For this reason, Sunday night requires a little relaxation.  And what better way to chill out than with a frosty treat!

More Americans consume ice cream on Sunday than any other day of the week.  The dessert helps distract them from the thought of another manic Monday.  This approach can be practiced throughout the work week - celebrate Waffle Cone Wednesday to propel you and your family to the weekend.  The at-home celebration only requires waffle cones and Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream,  If you'd rather avoid the preparation all together, then the Champ! Caramel Lovers Ice Cream Cones are a perfect alternative.

This week marks the beginning of "Air Conditioning Appreciation Month" and what better time to celebrate than during the hot. humid month of July.  In an effort to realize the luxuries of modern living, we suggest you sacrifice the air conditioning for one evening this week...and host an outdoor pizza party for family and friends.

Do you remember the last time you had quality, face-to-face communication?  In the hustle of today's fast-paced world, it's easier to catch up with friends over Skype than it is to meet for a coffee date.  The recent technological innovations have given people the opportunity to maintain friendships through non-verbal communication.

July is "National Ice Cream Month" and in celebration, we think everyone should take a moment to nourish their relationships with a dessert date.  Put down your cell phone and pick up your spoon!  A cell phone can't feed the stomach and soul.

Blue Bunny Personals Premium Ice Cream helps you focus on what really matters with family or friends, and better yet everyone can pick their favorite flavor!  If your dessert date is more of a dessert get together then a container of Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream is a perfect addition to your sweet conversations.  We think a couple of lawn chairs and a bowl of Bunny Tracks Premium Ice Cream sounds like the perfect date.  But it's up to you to make National Ice Cream Month as delicious and unique as the friendship it feeds.
