Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have friends who LURRVE frozen custard. It's good, but I am not wooo-crazy about it. I prefer Dairy Queen, if for nothing else, the nostalgia factor.
Ah, the days when Peanut Buster Parfaits came in a huge plastic tulip-cup. (Although I have found you can have them sub pecans for peanuts for about 50 cents. I like pecans much better than peanuts.)
but my Dad called all soft serve custard.
Yes, I am pretty sure my mom and grandparents did, too. But we had a lot of custrad stands, the more I think about it. Abbot's frozen custard (http://www.abbottscustard.com/) is our main ice cream franchise, so I would assume that ice cream is custard, but the stuff at Baskin Robbins is soft serve?
I was the weird child because I did not like cones, and always wanted/want my ice cream in a dish. I especially hated the cones at home because my mom could never get any ice cream inside the cone, so you just had all this...cone... to eat.
Baskin Robbins is soft serve?
No. If it comes in a tub, it's ice cream. If it's dispensed from a machine, it's soft serve.
Soft serve just doesn't taste like ice cream to me. It's more like a slightly more solid McDonald's milkshake.
Crap. Now I want ice cream.
No. If it comes in a tub, it's ice cream. If it's dispensed from a machine, it's soft serve.
Oh- I meant the soft stuff from the machines at Baskin-Robbins that have vanilla, chocolate and twist, not the tubs in front. That could be soft-serve or custard, right? But is probably soft serve.
I want ice cream, too, and I hardlyh ever eat it. The original Abbot's is about a 15 minute walk from my house...
Of course Mister Softee just drove down my street! But I did not run out after him.
Las Cruces even has a couple of custard places now. I've never actually had any (they emerged after my ice-cream aversion came into play.)
Just backed up all my mail, bookmarks and pictures on the external drive. My computer is doing weird shit.
I'd really hoped it would behave a little longer. This year has been so damned expensive.
I'm eating a root beer float right now, AIFG.
All this food talk is making me so hungry! Yet I do not want to put on pants and go get food.
Methinks I will order in. A gyro, or something cool. I DO have to put on pants to get the door, but it's a much shorter be-pantsed timeframe.
(Uh, FYI, I am not sitting here naked or anything. My computer room is really hot and I am in a tank and undies. Which are hot enough, but my computer room is also windows on three sides, faces a busy alley and another apartment building. So. Yeah.)
Gyro.
Problem with root beer floats is all the root beer. However I totally support a good stout float.
What I am about to be eating is cake for dinner. I've paid my dues, dammit.
