wish i had one of these right now. haven't had one in years. looked in two stores today and they didn't have any

i guess i'll try another place tomorrow.

an instacart website shows the "nutrition" values:
140 calories
0 cholesterol !!!!!
total fat: 7g

i loved these when i was a kid, teen, young adult, (lol) regular adult. now that i'm kind of an older adult (lol) or older, i want one again.
i hope i have time to go hunt down a box of these tomorrow.

i was at my daughter's house and the ice cream truck drove by and i looked at my five year old granddaughter and she had no reaction to it. i asked if she knew that was the ice cream truck and she said no. she's not a big fan of ice cream and so her parents never told her about the truck with the music and bells. but i remember how wonderful it was when i was a kid; i told her they have different kinds of ice cream treats (hoping they take her out the next time it comes thru their neighborhood). so the next day i went to the store and got a box of those drumstick cones, and a box of good humor strawberry shortcake. she wasn't crazy about either one but pretended to kinda like the strawberry shortcake.

that's when i started remembering about the chocolate eclair ones that i loved.

i'm thinking maybe she'd like those push-ups. i don't know if they still make them or sell them. i'll look for a box of those too (my daughter loved those when she was a kid)

==long story even longer==

sorry

Apparently, the previous driver from the previous summer was named Chip. Everyone called my brother Chip. His name was Arthur.

I'm female, but the kids all called me the Ice Cream Man. One kid said, "You're the first girl ice cream man we've ever had!"

We had a neighbor who didn't want her kid bugging her for ice cream from the Good Humor truck. So when the truck came down our street, just about every day around dinner time, she'd say, "Here comes the music truck!" Her son had no idea it sold ice cream!

I was in there this morning, and remembered to look.

Get a jar of hot fudge sauce and crank up the memories!
