I like Jeni's flavors. And sadly, the one time I got Graeter's here (I think the one grocery chain has one or two flavors, sometimes) it wasn't very good (the chocolate in it was really waxy?? [ETA: but the times I've gotten Graeter's at their stores it was delish!]). Mostly the reality is I'm sad the local frozen custard place closed, and the one I love in DC posts every day about their delicious flavors and other baked goods and it makes me want frozen treats. (All y'all in the DC area should go to the Dairy Godmother)
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy as I am to have my appointments, seems the usual suspects are in town again. They are, seemingly, planning another attempt on the Capitol. sigh ....
Ugh, I forgot to check on that -- they are showing up again tomorrow? UGH

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
We're doing plain old plebian Denali Moose Tracks in both vanilla and chocolate ice cream, full fat, full sugar, full whatever else it is you shouldn't be eating. Just--served in one of my teacups. Total indulgence, and then, done.
Yay for sticks, and appointments for sticks!
Hi Gud. Nice to see your typeface.

Jeni’s has some amazing flavors. The watch out for me is textures. They have a tendency toward add ins that are just gritty or soggy, like cereal or pastry bits that just make the whole thing grainy. So I’m careful what flavors I try, at $10 or more a pint.
But now they’re building one 6 or 7 blocks from here so it’ll be much less fraught!

Ooh that’s exciting, Brenda!! Much less risk if you can try before you buy, or only go scoops size rather than pint!

Hey. New board.
I used to eat at Jeni's a lot but the scoops are even more exorbitant than the pints (relatively). But the taste-everything-before-deciding is the best.

My phone won't turn on, I am assuming it is just that my charging cable has given up but I don't have a spare so I can't test that until I get a new one (hooray one day delivery) but dear lord getting my brain past the use-my-phone-for-that default for a day is extremely hard!
