Gas station ice cream

We went out for ice cream Saturday night. We planned to go to Graeter's for Ohio's famous gourmet, Oprah-recommended ice cream. It's incredible ice cream--yum! But it didn't really feel like a gourmet ice cream night...so we went to the gas station. There's a big, new United Dairy Farmers gas station/store that recently opened up not too far from our house, and it has a big ice cream counter. We decided to try that. It wasn't gourmet, but it was good enough for a happy, little family outing.

We had a nice time. Nothing terribly disastrous or especially funny happened, though there was a picture of a milk truck on the wall and David kept calling it a "milk shake truck," which I thought was cute. We were all happy and sitting still. It was a nice, normal, pleasant, totally unremarkable family outing. It's good to know we have those sometimes.
