Ice cream cone

Got this great idea that an ice cream cone would be good yesterday !!!

So I ask Renée if she was willing to go for a ride to get one. So off we went on a mission. There is an Ice cream maker/factory that is a little ways off in Coaticook Qc. We have to go around the Memphremagog lake and cross a few vaslleys to get there but we made it and had our cone... It was only a 6 hour/280kilometer round trip.....

We did go back country all the way and discovered a few covered bridges and a round barn.. but we had forgot the camera and phones .... Vacations prior to retirement can be hard at times .... :D :D :D

Sounds like a great way to use six hours to me ;)!

What flavor?

There where way too many to have in one visite .. So I did the next best thing and took vanilla.. I told renée we will be back for as many as they have to taste one at a time ;D

I wanted a soft ice cream cone, next times will be the hard stuff :D

Yep, sounds like a plan, ISaw, we have a creamery about 2 hours west that we make as often as possible, they have seasonal issues that we like, so we plan our trips.

Surprised, but no argument from me. I chose vanilla today while Pat and I were on a business trip to Jackson.

I don't have any cone here in my hand, but eating the real stuff just the same. They call it peanut butter and unsweetened Belgian Chocolate

Ingredients: cream, milk, sugar, peanuts, egg yolk, Belgian Choc, peanut oil, salt, vanilla.

Free of all the filler and fluff of the fake stuff. mmmm ;D

I like vanilla and I like a ride. With the price of gas and ice cream we can spend $50 on a ice cream trip. ;D Did you get a waffle cone? That adds another 50 cents.
