Electric ice cream!

Wouldn't you love a cone this big? I had a slightly smaller one last night, and it was delicious. Couldn't resist taking the photo of this big cone over the store's window display of their yummy ice cream. Little blurry; hand-held by me in one hand, with my cone in the other.

Mmmmm. This gives me an idea! I have had a hankering for one of those Dairy Queen cones with the chocolate dip on it. Oh man, I gotta run!

Jill said...

Great shot.

Imagine the tummy ache after eating THAT ice cream cone. :-)

As I got older, I find that I don't like ice-cream as much as I did when I was a kid. Now I prefer cookies and cakes.

Blurry or not, it is a happy shot! "Louis" is happy to read you enjoyed your ice cream. "Louis" is VERY choosy about ice cream. He only likes TWO kinds - home made and store bought.....

Ice cream! What a treat. Just as it is quite a treat to be able to come here and congratulate you with a virtual all-you-can-eat doggie basket of any kind of Golden Doggie Biscuits your little flea-sparing heart and funny face desires for being so completely and uncannily correct about our little snafu over at PDP.

Correct even to your supposition about Eric's leaving for work without checking.

Parisian Heart said...

Thanks for the invitation to the celebration! Good job solving the great mystery of the delayed PDP post!!

Your blog looks very interesting. I shall have to come back and visit often. :)

Bibi is not only an intuitive pup, but a female at that, and so has an extra dose of intuition, helped along by the fact that she too scheduled a post for shortly after midnight, woke up to see if it was indeed there, and it wasn't, so she posted "live." Hope this doesn't happen again or too often. Was planning to use scheduled posting while on a trip soon...
B:+# --that's sort of Bibi's smiley, with her crooked teeth and all.

Bibi
What flavour is the green one?

Tall Gary said...

The green one looks like wasabi to me but what do I know of?

Pat said...

Wooo, wasabi; that's hot. I think it's probably pistachio or lime sherbert...

Petrea Burchard said...

Yummm. I prefer lime to wasabi.

Alexa said...

Bibi -- you surely deserve a golden dog bone, and a nice big juicy one at that, for solving the "Where's Eric?" puzzle of last night.
(Or perhaps you are a chien with a sweet tooth, who would prefer a great big ice-cream cone like this?)
Love that you took this with camera in one hand and cone in the other!

Marie Reed said...

Wasabi icecream with a scoop of pickled ginger might be sushilicious!

Neva said...

We had ice cream last night but not me...dairy and I had to say goodbye a few years back ! I am so jealous because as much as I still love it, it does not love me! Great shot!

raf said...

Love that post....makes me happy. Bibi may have crooked teeth and all, but what an infectious smile! :) Make mine ginger, pistachio and green tea, please.

Eric said...

Mmmmmmmmmm Yummy! Thank you Bibi for your nice words on PDP ;) Hvala!

Tall Gary said...

Wow. it sure is good to see that Eric guy up there, isn't it?

Marie, your sushilicious taste treat is not beyond the pale of possibility. Check out #10 at "101 Frightening Ice Cream Flavors from Around the World."

Maybe we humans would not be readily disposed to it but, honestly, wouldn't Bibi like to try at least a little nip and lick of Raw Horseflesh Ice Cream (#17)? After all, we two species do have differing tastes at times.

Love ice cream cones. I had one last night. I missed getting here earlier today. Was getting a mole taken off my back. Should be back to normal tomorrow.

I think you did good on taking the photo in one hand and licking the ice cream in the other hand.

"Louis" also had a problem with Blogger not posting a scheduled post yesterday. "Louis" also has had a problem for the last 13 WEEKS with a bug in Blogger that makes the browser crash - no matter whether the browser is Safari or Firefox, and the bug bites whether "Louis" is using a Mac with OS 10.4.11 or OS 10.5. The bug doesn't just effect "Louis's" blogs - it bites others, too. The common element is ALWAYS Blogger. "Louis" has reported it everytime it has happened, both the Apple and to Blogger - but 13 weeks into it, Blogger has yet to list it among their "Known Issues".
GGGRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

Chuck Pefley said...

LOL! We're lucky there aren't ice cream drips all over your lens :) Sounds like you enjoyed your ice cream!

Pat said...

Thanks for your comments. Eric, thanks for dropping by; know you must be a super-busy guy. (Oh, I made a rhyme!) I have heard complaints about Blogger not answering people's complaints/requests, but I sure hope they look into the scheduled posting option malfunction. Like a lot of you, I plan on using it when I go on a two-week vacation soon...

THE MARKET AFTER HOURS

 Merchants have all packed up and gone home....
