Happy 70th birthday to this  guy!  My Dad, that is ...

Yes, today my fabulous Dad turns 70 years old.  I can hardly believe it!  He certainly doesn't look 70, does he?  {And how about my Mom, who's only a year behind him?}

I wish I knew their secrets, because I swear ... I'm aging much more quickly then they are.

We celebrated Dad's birthday this past Sunday on Easter Sunday, complete with birthday cake and ice cream for Easter dinner dessert.

But we didn't have the typical birthday cake and ice cream...

No, Dad chose a gingerbread layer cake.

That's how things work in our family ... the birthday boy {or girl} gets to choose what they want for a cake.  And for dinner, too.  Though since it was Easter Sunday, Dad was hosed on that choice.  He just had to go with the Easter dinner plans.  But I don't think he was disappointed.

So, what flavor goes great with gingerbread cake?

This ice cream is incredibly  easy, requiring just 3 ingredients.

Lemon, of course!

So my Mom called me and "ordered" {I'm her personal chef service, you see} lemon ice cream for Dad's birthday.  She knows I always either have a recipe up my sleeve, or that I'll rise to the challenge of whatever she dreams up!

And this time, I had the perfect recipe up my sleeve ~ Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream.

After recently discovering the joys of Limoncello liquor {how did you all let me go so long without knowing how GREAT this stuff is??}, I had actually been working on finalizing this Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream recipe over the past few weeks.  Perfect timing on Mom's part, don't you think?

So I immediately knew Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream was what I was going to make to celebrate Dad's extra-special day.

Now, my friends, there are really just two things we all need to know about this Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream.

1.  It's incredibly  easy, requiring just 3 ingredients.  It's one of those ice creams that starts with ... well, ... ice cream as a base.  Vanilla ice cream, to be exact.  Simply soften from-the-store vanilla ice cream, and stir in some Limoncello liquor and lemon curd.  That's it!  See, I told you ... incredibly  easy.

It's so good, my brother passed on the gingerbread cake in favor of two bowls of Limoncello Ice Cream instead!

2.  It's incredibly  delicious.  Like seriously, if you're a lemon lover, this stuff is for you.  It's so good, my brother passed on the gingerbread cake in favor of two bowls of Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream instead!

And let me tell ya, the birthday boy was sure pleased with his birthday Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream, too.

Happy birthday, Dad!  I hope Dad enjoys his extra-special day as much as he enjoyed his celebratory cake and Limoncello Lemon Ice Cream!
