It's fixed!
A quick email to the blogger tech peeps resulted in them making a change to the settings of the blog...hence the archives are publishing properly now! They're now archived monthly, and they're all there.
Pinky, this may fix the problem you were having, too.
Also coming: that social we had last weekend... promise!

News from Indiana
(Note: This is from Pinky. I'm just posting it-Bitter)
Hi!
Went to "Little Mexico" (yes it is called that) located in Crawfordsville, Indiana and had a great dinner, for dessert we had Fried Ice Cream.

Hi!
Went to "Little Mexico" (yes it is called that) located in Crawfordsville, Indiana and had a great dinner, for dessert we had Fried Ice Cream.
As pictured, it was topped with whipped cream, drizzled with chocolate sauce and a cherry plopped on top....Fabulous! My mother Sue, sister Lori, friend Matt and my beau John were there. My beau did not partake due to lactose intolerance....

My mother had never heard of fried ice cream. For those of you that follow in her footsteps, here is the gist of it:
Fried Ice Cream:
vanilla ice cream
frosted flakes
*powdered sugar
*cinnamon
almond slivers
vegetable oil for frying
Heat the Vegetable Oil in a large pot. While the oil is heating, take the Frosted Flakes and put them into a Ziploc bag. Smash them until they are pea-size pieces. Pour the Frosted Flakes and almonds into a large bowl. Take the scoop of Ice Cream and drop it into the bowl. Roll the Ice Cream around in the cereal and nuts until it is well coated. Take the cereal covered Ice Cream ball and drop it into the hot oil for 30-45 sec. *Optional - Take the Ice Cream out of the Oil and dust with Cinnamon and Powdered Sugar. Serve immediately.
Had fun, wish you all were there!

Hey all!
Looks as though summer is finally here!!!
In honor of this, I walked into town this afternoon and got a vanilla cone with rainbow sprinkles. I asked for a medium, and the guy put so much ice cream on there, I didn't know what to do.
Naturally, I did the logical thing: devoured it maniacally.

Abbott's dissed me.
Abbott's is on my shit list. I had two coupons, completely different from each other, and the little pimply-faced bastard said I could only use one! He says it says so on the coupon. I said "It says one per customer" - which means I can only use one of this particular coupon. I have another coupon for something different. Then he said it says cannot be used with another offer and I said "which means that I can't give you more than one coupon for the SAME ITEM. He kept saying sorry ma'am, I can't. And I asked to speak with someone who understands logic. But there were only girls there and they seemed to be too wimpy to speak up because THE MAN was "handling it". I tried to talk to another girl and she looked at me like I was speaking Greek and just kept looking to the big boy....oooohhh!!!
So I bought the one item, paid the money, then said, hi, I'm here to purchase these items with this coupon. Just pretend I'm a totally different customer. Sorry ma'am, I can't. How 'bout if I give it to the person behind me, you'd sell it to him wouldn't ya? Sorry ma'am. STUPIDFUCKINGZITFACEDPUBESCENTDUMBASSMOTHERFUCKER!
I said, "Don't you understand that 50% of a sale is better than 100% of NO sale? Did your manager teach you that? Sorry ma'am. Your superior would ever know the difference. Sorry ma'am.
And it was the last day to use those coupons, otherwise I'd have gone to a different location or just gone back the next day. But now forget it.
I'm gonna write those bastards at Abbott's a letter, and suggest they teach their stupid moron high school employees about business, and what the damn fine print really means.

Yes Virginia, It Is Spring
Okay.. ice cream updates from me:
- On the Saturday of Easter weekend (I know.. I've been delinquent!), my family and I partook in some frozen custard from Fran & Ciel's in Blasdell, NY.
- On April 24th, I had homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream from Aldrich's at the Taste of Chautauqua event put on by the County Democratic Party in Jamestown
- I finished off my half-gallon of Edy's Girl Scout Cookie Thin Mint ice cream while watching the pre-ultimate episode of Friends on Thursday. Before you think I'm a glutton, there was only about 5 spoonfuls left (not scoops) in the container.
- I had my first ice cream cone of the season from Bruester's this past Saturday. Homemade banana ice cream is the best!
So the ice cream intake has increased. I've just been bad about documenting it!
