Do you consider ice cream a seasonal treat? I don’t. There is certainly an uptick in my ice cream consumption during the summer months, which we are technically still in. But I can’t think why we would relegate something as delicious as ice cream to one small sliver of the year, particularly the portion that tends to blow right by. Here is a Sweet Corn Blueberry Sundae for the week that most of us return to our respective routines. While it may feel a little exuberant for buttoned-down September, I can’t think of a time when a sundae is more needed. Sure, we’re all interested in putting our best foot forward, nose to the grindstone, and all that jazz. But even the most ambitious of us need joyful reprieves to see us through. This Sweet Corn Blueberry Sundae is that joyful reprieve, so let’s make it!
