Dub and I ventured out today. We headed to the library to return an overdue book and then we were off to get some corn-on the-cob for dinner. We took the Maclaren up to the ice cream store to get our corn at the honor system corn wagon. As we were walking up the sidewalk, I noticed a dropped ice cream cone on the sidewalk. How sad for the little kid that lost their ice cream. As we approached the scene of the crime, it became clear to me that this was not an accident at all, but a purposeful drop.
The flavor of the cone was Blue Moon, I would have recognized that bright blue anywhere. Some poor child was inticed by that vibrant blue color and must have begged their parent for Blue Moon ice cream. Imagine the little tykes surprise when he realized that the Blue Moon ice cream from this store tastes like ALMOND! YUK!!!!!!!!!! Ususally, Blue Moon is sweet, like Fruit Loops....but not at this ice cream stand. What was he to do? He certainly couldn't complain. The only alternative was to drop the cone accidentaly on purpose. If he was lucky he got to go back and pick up a cone with cotton candy ice cream or maybe bubble gum ice cream.
Today's Lesson:
When Dub begs for the Blue Moon ice cream, ask for a sample taste first.
Cute, cute, cute!
