Cravings

I haven't really had any food wants that I would consider a craving. Sure, I prefer a salad or fruit to french fries, but that is based on being healthy and wanting something cold to beat the heat. However, I can officially say that I have now had my first craving and I owe it all to a cute little girl named Abbie.

While having lunch with my friend Andrea and her daughter last week, Abbie asked if I could go get a sno cone with them in RR. I don't think she really wanted to spend more time with me as much as she wanted a sno cone. I declined and headed back to work, but thought about that sno cone for a couple of days.

Monday night I called the sno cone place in RR to find that it had closed early for Labor Day. I googled sno cone and my city and my zip code and couldn't find anything. I guess the corner stands don't have a website!

Tuesday at lunch I found a stand near my office, but they were not open. It is lunch time and 100 degrees outside- is that not enough? I told Marcus about my dilemma and he told me there was a place at Braker and Jollyville that he had driven past that day which was open. Being the wonderful husband he is, he turned around and got me a large Tiger's Blood sno cone in the middle of the day. It was divine. I plan to have a bright red tongue everyday!

  2. I love sno-cones, but refuse to eat there in this area! They just aren't as good as the "New Orleans" style sno-cones we could get back home. Don't try convincing me either... they are just not the same!
