I'm not typically one for ice cream. It's too sweet and makes me immediately thirsty. Todd is though. Vanilla ice cream with berries is one of his most favorite treats.
I admit, since we always have ice cream in the fridge I will, on a rare occassion, have a bite. But it's not my favorite. Imagine how weird it was for me to suggest we stop at Dairy Queen earlier this week for a "cool treat."
We went to Verizon to donate an old cell phone, which is right next door to the DQ. Maybe it was the very un-March-like weather we've been having; or a swell of nostalgia for my younger days when we used to hit up the DQ pretty frequently, especially after my softball games; or maybe a combo of both, but I found myself saying, "We could get a cone from Dairy Queen!"
We got into a rather long line at the drive thru and ordered two small cherry dipped cones...
The prices sure weren't nostaligic! It was nearly $5 for two of the simplist treats they offer. Whatever. It was fun and tasty. We sat in the truck and ate our cones and enjoyed the weather...
I'm with you. I wouldn't say that I hate ice cream, but I certainly am not a huge fan. There are only two kinds of ice-cream that I like a lot. The first is chocolate peanut butter ice cream (made anywhere. No one can really get it wrong). The second are vanilla ice-cream cones dipped in cherry from dairy queen. I don't know what it is, but they're delicious!
