Pesto & Potatoes
Pesto & Potatoes

July 15, 2025

Nugget ice is one of the keys to my happiness, and it has been since I grew up with regular trips to Sonic Drive-In for their famous Cherry Limeade. My nugget ice maker just arrived, and that was the final thing I needed to make my own Cherry Limeade at home. I have had one in my shopping cart for months, but I was influenced this week to buy a much more affordable version from Wayfair.
