Waffle Cone Wednesday

Last night after dinner we went to TCBY. They are having their "Waffle Cone Wednesday" special again this year! They increased their price, but they also increased the size! When we got their Phil & I thought that Aiden could have his own......Maybe not such a great idea! If they would have been the same size as last year he would have been fine, but the size of this ice cream cone was HUGE - and melty - and sticky - and just radiated summer fun :o)

I enjoyed the grapefruit sorbet and OH MY WORD! It literally tasted just like a grapefruit, it was truly delectable. Phil had his golden vanilla, the dependable old flavor that is like that hug you need after a bad day. Aiden sampled the Hawaiian pineapple and went gaga over it, so that was what he got. Once the pineapple flavor hit his lips he was in the zone - staring off into space while biting off chunks of the cone. Graham had some very small tastes of each & didn't seem to be all that impressed by any of the choices we had made.

The after effects of having our sweet treats last night has really messed me up for today. All I can think about is Irish butter on some fresh French bread, German chocolate cupcakes, and Cuban sandwiches. And I don't have any of that here - except for the bread!

On another food note - I made my Grandma's sauce and meatball recipe last week. HOLY GOODNESS! They take part of the day to make, but are so scrumptious! The 5 hours it takes to make them are well worth it! Now we are set for awhile, but it got me thinking - Maybe I should jar the sauce?! I have never done something like that before, how hard can it be?!?! Probably more difficult than a mommy with 2 very active little boys can handle right now :o) Maybe I will try it next time I make them. We will see!
