I Heart Snowcones!

So as I have said before I think that snowcones should have a food group of there very own. I see now that my obssession has become an addiction. I seriously have one everyday. My favorite is pink lemon sour. There is a snow shack very close to school. Yesterday I skipped a day and I was very grouchy. I feel as if I am wasting my money but I just can't stop. They are so delicious and they put a smile on my face. So today I was thinking and feeling guilty about how many I eat a week but still decided to stop for my second round after school. There is a place on the way home called African Ice. I have often wondered how the African's enjoy their ice. To my surprise they like theirs just like the rest of the world. I found out that it is called African Ice because everytime you buy a snowcone they give you an african coin and you have three options of places to donate. They have explinations of each charity and a place to put your donation. So today I donated to a single mother by the name of Annanita. It was a sign to me that each time a suck down some of that icey deliciousness I am saving the world. Yay me! They are cheaper there to. Did I mention that I love snowcones.

We don't have any cool African snow cone places up here. We don't actually have any cool places up here. You've been here you know what I'm saying. We can drive for a few miles and get a soft serve ice cream twist. I prefer a total chocolate soft serve. Kacey prefers a choc. van. twist with candies all over it.

If you're looking for charities to donate to, there is one called Save The Aramie that is a very worth-while cause.
When I was a kid and we lived in CA, I used to get one called Tiger's Blood. I don't know if I liked it because of the mystery and intrigue one imagines when you hear "Tiger's Blood", or if it was because it tasted like raspberry.

Yes, it's true. I have been letting the phone ring and not picking up no matter who is calling. I'm in a funk. I'm sure that after I have filled my bucket at church tomorrow I will be much more likely to reach out to others, because Jesus said to.

Dont feel bad, its better than a daily dairy queen trip that has packed about 8 extra pounds on my tail! Snow cones are not bad for you! Enjoy, you only live once! Besides after your hard work you deserve a treat!~

I do have to say Leah that I too am a lover of the snowcone. There are three stands here in town, but my favorite is the snowstop. They have a summer kiss flavor that is amazing, it has like peach and strawberry and something else. It is deluxe!!
