"Oh Geez!"

These were my exact, quite audible, words that emerged when this delightful treat became framed in the window of Cone Heads at Deli Delite today. Truthfully, it was a bit loud. Some people laughed. Strangers. They must have been thinking, "There's a newbie."
And it is true. I had never been there before. After rationalizing that those few tea sandwiches I ate at a colleague's retirement celebration qualified as dinner I headed straight to Cone Heads. It took me awhile to decide. All I knew was that they had ice cream. I wasn't sure if it was soft serve, dipped, a few flavors, many...there was a lot to wonder. I decided to go with a tried and true favorite of mine: Moose Tracks. Now size - there were many to choose from but I figured medium would do. Well, I hung around reading about the breakfast specials available at the restaurant portion of this establishment and did think for a second, Hmmm..it is taking a while to get a scoop of ice cream. And then it emerged. That, my friends is a medium. I will say it was definitely worth my $3.25. As surprised as I was by the tower of ice cream, I am a professional:And that, of course is long gone.

  1. That is a MEDIUM? Impressive. Nice choice of flavor too - moose tracks is very yummy!

    Should you ever come to Argentina for a visit, you have to try the ice cream. It's incredible here! No moose tracks though. :(
