Move over, froyo

11.24.09

Summer may be gone and the weather may have finally gotten chilly, but who can say no to frozen desserts? Before you think Frostbites is another Pinkberry-esque frozen-yogurt wannabe—you won’t find any tart froyo with the cereal toppings here. Instead, there are sorbets (italian ices made daily from fresh fruits) swirled atop creamy frozen custard for a unique parfait treat. If you’re a fan of granitas, you’ll love Frostbites.

Choose from 16 sorbet flavors such as strawberry, lemon, mango, watermelon, coconut, peach, peanut butter, pineapple and cherry—then layer it with either creamy chocolate or vanilla ice cream. Popular combinations include mint italian ice with chocolate custard and peanut butter and jelly. Don’t be shy about asking for samples either—you can try as many flavors as you like.

Frostbites is located at 9111 Valley View St. in Cypress (across from Cypress College)

Housecleaning in Style

11.23.09

Housework is inherently a drag. But to the rescue is my friend Raili Clasen and her partner Maria Barnes, who founded OC-based Alice Supply Co. The duo created of chic line out of ordinary household stuff: dustpans, brooms, garden houses, sponges, and buckets. And I’d expect nothing less from these two, they know a thing or two about stylish retailing and what’s cool. They have Quicksilver, Roxy, Paul Frank and Hurley executive backgrounds. You can find their chic housewares at Ace Hardware in Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, and Costa Mesa. At Laguna Supply in Laguna Beach; or at EVEN Sisters on Balboa Island; or shop online.
