Yummy Ice cream!
So, last night was 31 cent scoop night at Baskin Robbins from 5-10 pm. Last year when I attempted to go, we went around 7 pm and the line was crazy long so we didn't go. So this year we decided to go right when they opened at 5. Well, we get there about 10 minutes before 5, and there is already a line forming. I was actually surprised there was a line, but thankfully it wasn't too bad. We wait, and finally at 5 they open the doors. The line moved SO slow at first, and we were starting to wonder if we should just go next door to Fry's and buy a gallon of ice cream, but we stuck it out. Good thing, because the line picked up and it only took us 20 minutes to get our ice cream. I was so glad we waited because it tasted SOOOO good. I didn't realize it, but they let you buy as many scoops as you want for 31 cents each, up to five scoops. So of course Dave and I decide to get all five scoops, and save some for later. (Our kids weren't too happy with that since we only let them get one scoop each.) It was so fun to get to pick FIVE different flavors, when I usually just get to pick one. I got Heath crunch, cookie dough, Oreo cookies and cream, fudge brownie, and pralines and cream. (All so delicious!!) So, we took our ice cream home, and I did save some for later. We went home, had dinner, and last night while watching American Idol I heard the ice cream calling to me and I couldn't resist. So I polished off the rest of it. YUMMY! Thank goodness 31 cent scoop is only once a year!!! (Excuse me now while I go run a million miles to burn off all those calories!!!!)

We went around 7 last night and saw the line, got in the car and drove to tastee freeze. Next year I will be going earlier.
I didn't want to brave the lines. I'm glad you didn't have to wait too long. Nate and I always buy Ben and Jerrys and eat them after the kids go to bed. My kids don't like that either!
You're too funny. Smart, though to buy extra for later. We do that to our kids all the time, pig out on the dessert and only let them have a 'children's size' portion.
I didn't know that BR did that! That's Landon's favorite spot. I'll have to remember that one!
That is too funny. Way to take advantage of the 5 scoops. You picked my favorite icecream flavors too!
