Ice, Ice Baby!
Yesterday I did something I haven't done in a LONG time. I have wanted to do it for a while but I was sick and couldn't do it without getting more sicker so I had to wait. But, yesterday I did it. I had a craving for some ice cream for a while. I actually did look at it longingly when I was in the store the other day. I didn't buy it then because I couldn't decide on what kind I wanted and then the prices took me back and I mean literally I stepped back in horror. Of course I was at the corner store when I was salivating at the ice cream freezer and of course they are going to be higher then the regular grocery store but not by too much with ice cream. But, yesterday I said what the heck. I sucked it up pulled a $5 bill from my wallet and got a pint of lemon and vanilla cookie ice cream. At first I wasn't sure cause it said organic and I have never eaten organic ice cream in my life. And it was made by 3 twins and I have never even heard of them. But, the selection was not that great. They had Ben and Jerry's too but nothing that I liked from that brand and I said what the heck it looked good on the box so I might as well be daring and take the ice cream plunge. I was so glad I did.
When I got home I put it in the freezer cause after all it was 10 in the morning and I although I did think about ice cream for breakfast I thought I better eat something with a little more substance since I had other things to do. So, it sat there until after dinner waiting for me. I took it out when my mom was asleep and my son was playing with his bey blades in the other room. I said here's my chance to eat in peace and not share. I know it is wrong, the not wanting to share part, but sometimes you just want to have a little something to yourself like a pint of lemon ice cream. So, I grabbed it and a plastic spoon, why I don't know but it seemed right at the time. I took one bite and LOVED it and so before I knew it I was eating the whole thing and without anyone calling my name interrupting my ice cream coma. I was in heaven.

I am going to go and get another slice of heaven later. I am hoping they still have my ice cream there which I am sure they do because yesterday they had 5 pints left and I am pretty sure they didn't have a run on lemon ice cream in the past 24 hours. I think this is my new favorite ice cream. I can eat this stuff by the ton.
