Too Absent Herald

I have a question.

While getting mesmerized by a DQ commercial which advertised their new “chicken Tenders basket” (of course, “Basket” is probably trademarked, so we’ll call it a “Chicken Mitt”) – it includes fries AND two triangular pieces of Texas Toast (is that a deal?)

Anyway, I was drawn in by the follow-up ad that reminded/cajoled the viewer into having a Blizzard (to wash it all down).

Here’s the question: Am I incorrect in announcing that a Blizzard is only ice-cream with something thrown into the blender?

I’m right, aren’t I?

If that’s the case, then I officially have a new (the first in a while) idea for a party theme: Make your own Blizzard.

I got this throw-back blender with a glass top that weighs about 35 lbs. So …
Everyone that comes to the party has to bring their own Blizzard ingredients and then consume AT LEAST 4/5 of their concoction.*

Here’s my blizzard (what this, I just threw this together!):

3 Scoops of French Vanilla (the good kind).
2 now un-usable 256mb RAM chips from my old iBook
1 Maria Mancini cigar (for age)
7 or 8 non-edible non-pareils

garnish with an Atomic Hot Wing.

*People will have to bring their own decanting device or suffer the consequences.
