DQ
I love Blizzards.BUT there are 2 things I HATE about DQ's in Texas:
#1: THEY DON'T HAVE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM! Just vanilla! I felt so jipped the first time I went to a get my signature Reese's w/ chocolate ice cream Blizzard. I hate vanilla ice cream. Such a waste of fat & calories. Blah.
#2: While they do have a "Blizzard of the Month," it is not at a discounted price. Like in Utah, a normal small blizzard is $2.59 while the BOTM is like $2.09 or whatever. What's the point of a BOTM?
I decided something needed to be said about #2. So last time I was at the DQ by our church, I mentioned the fact that at other DQ's, the BOTM actually meant something. It was cheaper & therefore special, as a BOTM should be. I told the worker that he should talk to someone about that. Fast forward a few weeks to tonight...
I stopped & got one tonight on my way home (you know, since I'm trying to loose the baby weight & everything), as I often do on Wednesday nights since there is no DQ by my house. I decided to go with the BOTM since it was Peppermint Chip & I love blizzards with extra stuff that cover up the fact that it's vanilla ice cream they're using. Anywho-- I distinctly remember the price listed as 2.59. "What a shame..." I thought. But when the man said the price he said, "$2.15!"
VICTORY.
Now I need to write someone about the chocolate ice cream....
You think I'm joking.

P.S. Just b/c you don't want me around your husband doesn't mean you can't let me know you're going to DQ. That's wrong on a whole other level.
The Palmers are moving here today and we'll get to see them in about 2 hours. We totally owe them on helping them unload b/c when we moved into our apartment they helped so much. I'm so excited for some friendly TX faces! When are you guys visiting? ;)
