It seems that DC is blanketed with adds for Ben and Jerry's new "cone" ice creams. Do you know what I'm talking about? Apparently, they have a column of fudge, caramel, or jam in the center of the pint. There in metro stations and bus stations throughout the city.
I can't keep my eyes off of them. I'm drawn to the advertisements like a bug to a light. I looked for them at the grocery store earlier this week, but the store did not have a single one. The just had the regular old Ben & Jerry's.
Today after gorging myself on hot pot, I went to the grocery store again for the sole purpose of buying a pint, but again there wasn't any to be found. I'm beside myself with what to do. It's been the trial of my week.
This week I ate scones for breakfast. It's been far too long since I made scones. Scones were first mentioned in 1513. There are several theories about the origin of the word.
