scarlet and cream - our dream business


matthew and i dream of owning a little retro trailer one day and running an old fashioned float stand out of it.  kind of like an ice cream truck...only better because instead of a bell there will be 50's music and root beer floats with candy striped straws (and we can't forget about the pie crust sticks with homemade jam!!).  the nostalgia of it just makes me so giddy!

the only thing that would make it better is pulling our stand - which we plan to call Scarlet & Cream with this lovely...


it's a 1957 ford crestline.  one of my besties will be selling this car and the mister and i are seriously considering purchasing this beauty.  it wouldn't be for a few months, but i have my fingers crossed that it will all work out!  she is absolutely beautiful with her peach color and a white interior...all we need in this town is a diner and drive in movie!  XO, lindsay

ps  i'll keep you posted on scarlet & cream - i'm determined to make it happen!

  14. If you opened that shop, I would go. I don't care how far away I am. And you need that car. And then you need to have someone take cute photos of you and Matthew with it! And then put them on the blog! Ok, it's settled. That's what you're doing. =)
