Is Coldstone the place that mixes the flavor on a slab of chilled marble? I've been to one of those. And gotten sorbet, because I can't have ice cream. It was ok. I miss B&J's lemon swirl. I'm sure you can get it in shops, but no longer at the grocery store. It was like the tartest homemade lemonade.
I am eating cherries. Good. But I really want Mozambiquan avocados (2x the size of a grapefruit!) and portuguese rolls now. A little sea salt, spoon and I'm in heaven. Half of one of those suckers was a meal.
A/C is struggling. 79. Uhg. I did resort to the unwater friendly fix, which is running the shower ice cold, blowing a fan through it. Bought me 4 degrees.
I need a house. Then if it doesn't have central air, a/c units WHEREVER I WANT THEM. I'd pay $2k or whatever to keep cool in my own place.
I went to Steve's once [eta, in DC]. It was tasty.
Once you go frozen custard, though, ice cream doesn't often live up.
We just got our electric bill, billing date through 7/19. I am sick, sick, sick at it: $171.00.
Of course, that's way cheaper than oil was this winter, and we use electricity for lights, and the stove, and appliances other than the a.c. and fans. Still. Ugh. It's just been ungodly here, though.
The original Steve's was in Davis Square. Apparently Herrell's is still good (Steve Herrell was the founder, who sold off his first name along with Steve's Ice Cream).

Yes.
I stopped at the grocery store for advil on the way home, and they had B&J on sale, so I came out with Chocolate Therapy and Magic Brownies.
If it is any colsolation, that what my bill for a 700sqft top floor apartment sometimes looks near past month. My a/c is HIGHLY inefficient. I've gotten reimbursements, but..uhg. Not with the current management staff. I need to call the headquarters in Jersey.
I am so obsessed with Google Maps! I keep finding my way from place to place.
Ours was probably the same Steve's - I hadn't realized it was a chain. It closed when I was still in school, though. Sad.
ION, I am almost done with HBP now, and it is getting very interesting, so I'm going to go focus.
I remember when I was a kid getting blueberry cheesecake ice cream from one of the chain ice cream places and it was the bestest ice cream ever. But I have yet in my adult life to find any ice cream store, chain or not, that actually carries it.
ION, now that's cooled off outside (a relative term) and I've been a lazy bum for the better part of the week, I decided I should do some exercise. I was disappointed to discover I've been away from Tae Kwon Do so long I've forgotten my third form (out of 4). The other three and some kicking drills were more than enough for my out-of-shape self, though.
It's cooler on the floor. I'm going to lie on the floor.
