The surest sign of Spring is not the melting of snow, the days getting longer, warmer or even the start of baseball.
When neighborhood ice cream stands open for the season, THEN I know that winter has gone for good (at least until next year)-and it’s time to DIG IN!!!
I am a huge fan of what Dairy Queen calls the “Blizzard”---ice cream with chunks of peanut butter cups or other disgusting fattening candy ingredient mixed in! Every ice cream stand worth their salt will offer THEIR version of this delectable treat. Although they each call it something different it’s clear that whatever name they use will imply that you, the customer are a pig for ordering one.
I am, therefore, a pig.
A happy pig, willing to stand in line in inordinate amount of time waiting for my pimply teenage ice cream pimp to prepare my treat, which should be served in a brown paper bag, such is my shame.
Ah, summer (and late spring) means ICE CREAM, loaded with gobs of tasty gunk! Bring it on!.. Here’s an old Meadow Gold TV commercial I thought you would enjoy:
