Fridayyayayayayayay! Fun Folks

<p>Hot here too, boB. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have no AC in my apartment...it was 88* in my apartment when i got home last night.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still, I slept fine.  In fact, I overslept til 8!  Eeks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We have little garter snakes around my house, but that's it...they were living in my old kitchen cabinets apparently.</p>

<p>QOD:  the best flavor ice cream I've had lately (and I 1) eat a lot of ice cream and 2) pick unusual flavors, like cucumber, salted caramel, creme fraiche and "El diablo" which is mexican chocolate with cayenne pepper) was <em>pop corn</em> ice cream.  <em><strong>OMG.  </strong></em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I asked how they make it and was told, they soak cocoa covered caramel corn in the liquid ingredients, then puree that, and sieve out the solids.  They make the ice cream from the remaining liquid.  And it's served with a sprinkling of crushed caramel corn on top.</p>

<p><strong>Moe</strong> - Ack to no AC!  Hope your landlord gets that fixed asap!</p>

<p>hehe...um, my apartment has <em>no</em> AC at all, exc one window unit that I put in the spare room, on the idea that a houseguest might want it and if it were really hot, I could just sleep back there.  But I have a temp roommate right now, so he's got the AC and I have no option.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've contemplated getting a portable unit, so I could roll it around and use it in the rooms where I felt I needed it most but I haven't bothered to spend the money.<br>

<p>/faints.  Wow. I can't image a house without AC!  (but I've lived in the south all my life, so having AC has always been a constant thing)</p>

it's really only hot here for a couple months, and I live in a 100 yo house with radiators, not ducts/vents, so to have central AC is a major upgrade.  Honestly, I doesn't bother me much, so I just deal. I had central AC in my last house and I kept turning it off and opening the windows if it was under 85* outside.</p>

<p>FUN:  the ice cream sandwich truck is outside our building!  My friend and I split one with dulce de leche cookies and java crunch ice cream. </p>
