I’d like to be this cool. I’ll never be this cool. GIF found on Twisted Sifter.
That’s what I’m hoping for anyway, as hot as it’s been lately. And apparently the heat has been cooking my brain cells since I forgot somehow to schedule this post last Sunday, which would have been the day after the 50th anniversary of the moon landing, and National Ice Cream Day to boot.
So yeah, I kinda screwed up. Again. I do that more than I’d like.
Today, though, is National Milk Chocolate Day. While I tend to prefer a mix (because sometimes dark chocolate is too bitter and milk chocolate, especially of the European variety, can be too sweet), I can be on board with good milk chocolate. Especially in ice cream. I’ll be dipping into a carton later. And maybe a Klondike. And an Italian ice.
Anything cold, really. It’s frickin’ hot. And it’s not even August yet. Sheesh.
OK, little otter, you can have it. But I’m takin’ the half-gallon of Yarnell’s. Image found on Pinterest.
Since I grew up in the country with dairy farming friends, I’ve always known chocolate milk doesn’t come from cows (well, the chocolate part). Doesn’t mean I haven’t laughed at those who thought it did. Image found on imfunny.net.
Well, now we know who’s been eating the butter pecan ice cream. Image found on amazing-creature.
I’ve seen no ice cream. Promise. I kept my eyes closed the entire time. Image found on Pinterest.

The milk chocolate one does indeed appear to be less bitter. Image found on cheezburger.

I'm a retiree in his seventies. That may not be significant to many, since there is a bunch of us Baby Boomers around. However, in the year 2,000, when I received a diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma, I expected to be dead in three to five years.
