Invision


I was planning on keeping this grand idea of mine on the dl but... I would really love your thoughts and opinions. I want to open an ice cream shop in town. And since you can't see in my brain, let me try to give you a general idea of what it would be.  



Perferably a location close to the square.
Maybe that building that is for rent/sale by Susie's?
Or that building across from Sportos that can't keep a business to save it's life?


An old school jukebox. Absolutely!


Seating. Not a lot, just enough.
Wouldn't you like to take your date for ice cream? EEEKK :)


((real)) soft served ice cream.


Wipe the drool away...
((real)) scooped ice cream.

Maybe some other things like Italian Ice, hot dogs, soda pops, candy, get the point??

Ummm... it will fun & bubbly but also warm & cozy.
Littles' birthday parties! With fun activities involved!
Open year round. I don't know about you but I still want ice cream in the winter.

What do you think?!

I have already brought this idea up with my parents and Trav.
They are on board. Yes, my husband is on board. Can you believe it?

I'm hesistant. For two reasons.
One. It's going to be a lot of work. I like the challenge. But....
I have babies that are my number one priority.
Two. Topix.com
F that sight and every single person who is low enough to comment on it.
My mom has been riped apart on that sight. With 99% of it not be true.
I don't get it and I never will (this is a whole other post)
All I'll say is this...
She gives her whole heart & soul to her business
FOR the people. So those people have a nice place to have dinner with their families
or so those people have a nice place to hang out with their friends.
And she gets trashed on that site. Makes me sick and pissesd and sad.
I'm gonna stop.
So suggestions, comments, ideas, thoughts, opinions. GO!

I have been saying for YEARS that I was gonna open an old fashion ice cream shop in Waterloo!! I am gonna call it Mitchell's :) Prob never gonna happen.
I say Go for it!! I will come and bring my kiddos!! Love this idea!

Heather said...

Do it dude!! I'll so work for you! I think it would be so fun to work in a place like that. My aunt used to rent that place next to Susies for her hair salon/gift shop. I think it would be perfect!

Sarah said...

Ashley, I'll give your kids free ice cream if you eliminate the competition lol.

Heather. You are hired! :)

Ashley Mitchell said...

Haha..I won't do it, I don't wanna work long hours ;) But free ice cream sounds nice!

Emily Montgomery said...

On the Topix issue...the Fucktards wife started a very nasty thread on there about me, my dating the Fucktard while they were "married" and my inability to have kids. She posted my first and last name for all to see. I got it taken down REAL quick. I'll try the same thing with your moms.

Do it, do it, do it! We'll be there all the time. :)

Eric and I stumbled on the Topix website one night and LAUGHED our butts off at how ridiculous it is. And then it made us ashamed to be from Red Bud, because clearly we're all uneducated hillbillies hurlin' dag nabbed insults at each other. It's a disgrace to our city - and I mean that in the harshest possible way.

I know it HURTS to read or see anything about someone that you love, but I assure you that people who post there represent the smallest (and strangest) sampling of people there are around. I'd hop on and tell people to get an education and mind there own business, but then I'd risk getting mobbed by the redneck patrol. Ay yi yi...

Well said Adrien!!

We were awarded a "pay-it-forward" award for those blogs that have less then 200 followers and I posted a blog on the 5 I chose to pay it forward, and your blog was one of them! It is the Liebster Award. Come check out our blog's current post to see what it's all about!

And... you should TOTALLY open an ice cream shop. Count me in as a customer for sure!! Then I won't have to drive all the way to Smithton! haha :) And screw Topix - the only people who believe the crap written on it are the people low enough to post on it.

I wanna work for you too!! I think it's a super duper idea!!!

Kim Luke said...

I want a job too.. you can pay me in ice cream. lol

Good luck! I hope this really happens for you!!!!!!

Sarah said...

YAY!!! I was really nervous about your opinions. But I love them ALL :)

You are all hired! lol

Thank you Jami & Jenna. That is really sweet of you. I had no idea you had this other blog.
