You know, I never thought of it that way lolDoesn't sound too far afield from dipping McDonald's chips in your sundae, which my partner does, so, go for it.

It's creamy sweet with crispy savoury fatty salty. It's not that weird.You know, I never thought of it that way lol
Speaking of weird fast food combos, Wendy's saltine crackers (that they give you with their chili) are good dipped in their chocolate frostys. Go figure.It's creamy sweet with crispy savoury fatty salty. It's not that weird.
Now whether it actually tastes good... I guess you'll find out!
That is so funny because if I have a frosty, I dip the fries in it!! I don’t eat much of either and toss out the rest. I apparently did not get the french fry or the ice cream gene.

I love having veggies for dinner! Unfortunately, DH does not.Breakfast with my friend today at KeKe’s Cafe. They put too much pepper on the potatoes. I was able to eat about 1/4 of my Greek omelette, a triangle of toast and a few potatoes. I’m going to sauté the potatoes in butter tomorrow and that should dilute the pepper. I have enough left over for 2 meals!
Dinner was carrots with a different hummus. The ingredients were about the same with the exception of the oils used. The Sabra has soybean oil and I find the taste is rather strong for me. The brand from Aldi’s has sunflower oil. It is milder and more to my liking. I ate the entire little dish which I don’t do with the Sabra brand.
RBBM: Thank you for pointing this out! I'd never have realized that's probably why I don't like some brands over others, it must be the oil.Breakfast with my friend today at KeKe’s Cafe.

I have to draw the line at mixing chili with a Frosty though, just in case anyone is considering it lol!Speaking of weird fast food combos, Wendy's saltine crackers (that they give you with their chili) are good dipped in their chocolate frostys. Go figure.
Welcome to the club I sorta figured that a "frosty" was similar to a Dairy Queen "Blizzard" which I have had. There was a DQ near our previous home. We would ride our bikes there, with our beagle in tow. We would each have a Blizzard, and the workers always gave Max a little bowl of water. He enjoyed tasting our Blizzards, too, and even ate from our spoons! Fun times, for sure.(I think I don’t get out enough…)
The soup sounds great. We had a cool, gloomy, rainy day yesterday (thanks to effects of former hurricane Francine), and I made beef stew with onions, garlic, carrots, potatoes, red wine and beef broth. It's one of my favorite things to cook and it hit the spot. We will have another meal from it. Tonight I made shrimp salad and served it on mixed greens with tomato, avocado, and pitted Kalamata olives. It was good too!We're having a heat wave here in southeastern Michigan with daytime temperatures in the 80s instead of the 70s. Overnights are cooler but above normal. We composted our dragon wing begonias on the porch and wall planter and replaced the urn with a lovely yellow mum. We'll keep the geraniums on the deck for another week or so as they still look fresh. Sprinklers getting blown out on Monday. Fall and winter are coming eventually.
Even though it's going to be quite warm today, I plan to make Pasta Fagioli (soup). I'll cheat a little on the prep and use food processor for the carrots, celery, garlic, and onion. Other ingredients include Italian sausage, chicken stock, canned diced tomatoes, cannellini beans, orecchiette pasta, and fresh basil for garnish. I will add a Parmesan rind to thicken the soup and provide additional flavor and richness. We'll enjoy the soup with crusty Asiago bread and a nice Chianti.
What is this “Frosty” you all are talking about?
Is it much different from a milkshake?
(I think I don’t get out enough…)
A Frosty is sort of like a chocolate milkshake from Wendys'. It's not as creamy or chocolatey as a milkshake. To me it tastes like a chocolate popsicle.Welcome to the club I sorta figured that a "frosty" was similar to a Dairy Queen "Blizzard" which I have had. There was a DQ near our previous home.
