A Totally Usable Excuse for Eating Ice Cream

Apparently July is national ice cream month. While it makes sense I don't think I ever knew that before getting the press release from Proof about their ice cream month celebration.

Indulge in decadent ice cream without the guilt at Proof on Main-after all, it's for charity! For the 3^rd year running, Proof will celebrate National Ice Cream month by donating all proceeds from July's ice cream and sorbet sales to the Louisville Deaf Oral School and Kosair Children's Hospital Foundation. Proof will also be hosting ice cream socials for the children at both charities' establishments. Last year, Proof was able to raise $4528 for the children's charities with such innovative flavors as banana malt gelato, sea salt caramel gelato and caramelized pineapple sorbet. This year, Chef Michael Paley is hard at work crafting new flavors that feature local ingredients like fresh berries and melons from the Ohio River Valley.

If I were a more selfish person I'd say these restaurants need to stop with all the charity stuff because they're sucking me in and making me eat and spend way more than I should. But who can complain about eating ice cream and supporting the Louisville Deaf Oral School at the same time? No one that's who.
