Cold Stone, Hot Stone

Today’s Run: 4.22 miles

Cold Stone, Hot Stone.  No, that is not a contradiction, that is an ice cream sundae at Cold Stone ice cream shoppe.  And is it ever yummy!

My husband received a gift card for Cold Stone from my sister and her family for his birthday *(((whisper))) last Nov.* and we finally used it today. Boy, was it every worth the wait!

You see, there is not a Cold Stone here in Columbus where we live, but there is one in Starkville, where they live and we are there often.  The times that we are in town, however,Cold Stone has not been open yet.  Too early in the day.  Boo.

Today, we were there, in Starkville, in the middle of the day and lo and behold, Cold Stone was open AND we had the gift card with us.  It was providential!!!  So, we stopped and redeemed the gift card.  We both chose the Hot Stone Sundae.  My husband chose one flavor and I, a different one.

He chose a warmed up brownie sundae.  I chose a chocolate chip cookie ice cream one.  And it was infinitely superior.  Why?  Well, a brownie sundae is a brownie sundae.  Sure, they warmed up the brownie for you and gave you warmed up caramel and hot fudge sauce w/pecans and whipped cream…

But I got a warmed up chocolate chip cookie with warmed up chocolate chip cookie dough, double fudge chocolate ice cream with chocolate shaving, hot fudge, no nuts and no whipped cream, thank you (I am cannot eat nuts and I do not care for whipped cream).

I will admit to eating a few bites before taking the pic, so you can just imagine how much yummier it looked before!!!  Be jealous because it really was good!
