TOD:

Butter Pecan!

I am sure that vanilla ice cream was the first I ever had, and I still like it.  Don't like chocolate......

The Oscar nominations are odd. Glad to see Parasite among the best picture noms if only because it’s different.

TOD:

I think the once ubiquitous choc-van-straw was the first flavor ice cream I had. I fell for Rocky Road and named my dog Rocky after it.

I just learned from Jeopardy that Rocky Road was named because of the Great Depression.

I may have a problem getting to City Center this morning.  There's a big water main disaster at Broadway and 62nd Street.  Traffic is closed and subways are making no stops between 42nd Street and 96th Street.  I just sent Joshie an email.

I heard about that this morning and wondered if it would affect you.  I am sorry.  Do you still have running water in the apartment?

Yes, we have water.  This happened twenty blocks south of me, but I'm in that limbo area between the flood and 96th Street where traffic's at a standstill and no subways are stopping.  I talked to Joshie, and I will not be in.  I'll see him tonight at Rob Berman's birthday celebration.

Strawberry was my Dad's favorite, and it might be mine, too.  He also liked Cherry Vanilla (it was called White House cherry when I was a boy, and United Dairy Farmers still calls it that).
Ginger
Peppermint stick
Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia
And sometimes a bit of good chocolate ice cream is the best

I feel somewhat unclean. I just read my first article on Prince Harry stepping back from his princely duties. I could hardly care less. Why is this important?

Congrats to MR BK & Co on their successful MAN run.  The photo in the notes was most amusing.

Sorry, I forgot to answer Jane’s question from yesterday.

Yes, I have plenty of food in the house to eat for myself and the Nickmeister!

Thanks.  I was concerned since you have been sick.  I hope you are feeling better.

At about 4 a.m., my husband had a bad dream. He kicked Leonard, who then jumped over my face.

 ;D. Is it ok to laugh?  Your face isn't scratched?

He didn't kick him on purpose; he was asleep.

Of course not.

DR George it is my understanding that some medications & treatments can help in the earlier stages of alzheimers and a medical confirmation is needed to get them.  Of course I could be wrong.

TOD:
I like everything on John G.'s list.
My favorite is Baskin Robbins' Peanut Butter and Chocolate. I also love their Jamoca Almond Fudge.
Other favorites are:
Ben and Jerry's Chubby Hubby
Ben and Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk
And for Bruce, I thought I'd mention again that Trader Joe's has a cherry chocolate chip that's out of the this world. It's soy ice cream, but still extremely good.
What's the first ice cream flavor I ever had? How could I know that!? - I was probably three years old!  :)

I took the Newark Express bus from Port Authority and feel lucky to be alive after the crazy driving of the bus driver.  I've never heard anyone honk their horn so much.   He was going around curves at a great rate of speed.   The funny thing is, before leaving Port Authority he made a little speech about how safety would be a priority.
