      For those who don't know, a "float" is a scoop or more of ice cream (usually vanilla), in a glass, then some flavored soda (aka "pop" ...think Coke but don't stop there) is poured over it. A float, aka an ice cream float, was one of my favorite childhood summertime treats. Last night we topped all I've ever had before. We started with a supreme ice cream[^], one that is so good a writer for the New York Times said it was worth the trip to Cincinnati. That's like a Parisian saying some food in Dover was worth the trip in January. One of my favorite flavors for the soda is something called "root beer". [^] Normal root beer is basically a tea made from bark and roots of trees. Well...my favorite daughter favorite boyfriend brought over some Not Your Father's Root Beer...[^] Yum!

          And that's exactly how that stuff tastes. Only during survival training I ever had to think about the nutritious value of tree bark or roots.

            We made ours with Cream Soda[^] instead of root beer and it was called an "Ice Cream Soda". I remember my grand parents had anodized aluminum glasses that were only used for that (eaten outside around the pool)

                Now you've gotten me thinking about all the things I loved as a kid. And have been severely disappointed in as an adult. Topping the list: Moxie. Tastes like cigarettes, now. Not smoking them...eating them. But even Root Beer is just not making it anymore after a sip or two. Cream soda? Nope. Can't drink it anymore. And don't get me started on Birch Beer.

                      Don't even get me started on Graeters... I might have to make the extremely strenuous 5 minute walk there tonight... :laugh: As far as floats go, vanilla ice cream with orange soda is pretty darn good. Also, I did Dr. Pepper with chocolate ice cream once, which was quite tasty.

                      Picked up 3 pints for under $15 last weekend. Would have done 4 but when I did that last year I ended up in the hospital for "gas" (Cardiologist has a different opinion, the punk kid!). My hospital room was ground level. Across the way, the sign on a Graeter's shop mocked me for 4 days.

                          He's been my favorite of her boyfriends since the beginning. He does all the right things, including telling her that if he is going to propose I (her favorite father), will know first. Was afraid to let her know how much we like him because then she might have dropped him. :) If she did now, she might need to find herself some new parents.

                                    Well, to the best of my knowledge, the only reason I ever drank Moxie was because of Mad Magazine. :p Twizzlers are...strange. I think the play with the formula, or maybe they're made in different plants with different recipes. Sometimes they taste the way they did when I was kid, sometimes they're overly "plastic". But I tend more toward the chocolate ones than the red ones.

                                      Cuban sandwiches rock!  Sadly, I've never had one (yet). /ravi

                                      Since you're a salami fan, ever had salami and cream cheese on a garlic bagel? Another reason to live!

                                        Everything except the cheese sounds great!  (Unfortunately not a big fan of cheese, because it doesn't agree with me). :( /ravi

                                          Chocolate Twizzlers? Never heard of chocolate Twizzlers until now. The black ones I've had were a horrid licorice flavor.
