Today we celebrated my daughter’s eighth birthday (which was yesterday). As part of the festivities, we went to The Spotted Cow in Peoria Heights. For those of you who don’t know, The Spotted Cow is a local ice cream parlor with three locations around Peoria. Their claim to fame is that they make their own ice cream on the premises. Once you get past the regular flavors, like vanilla or mint chocolate chip, you can also find such flavors as “spumoni” or “cherry chocolate”. The price is fairly reasonable, too. The Spotted Cow sells ice cream by the ounce, rather than the cone, so you are harged for the actual amount of ice cream that you are receiving. This seems fair to me.

If you enjoy ice cream, then support a local businessman and check out The Spotted Cow.

For those of you who don’t live here…you’ll just have to suffer.

  1. I’ve only had it once, but that was some jolly good ice cream! I liked how the place was decorated, too. If we had one in Erie I’d be a regular!
