The other day I saw an post by Bliss Restaurant that today would be National Ice Cream for Breakfast day. I saw that they would have a oreo crusted fried ice cream and I knew I had to go and enjoy that. So, after work I got the family up and awake and out the door before 7:30 so we could go and get that ice cream for breakfast. We were the first people to order ice cream of any kind for breakfast. They were also doing a raffle or sweepstakes for anyone who ordered off the special menu of ice cream. I go the Oreo crusted fried ice cream and Allison got the liege waffle and ice cream. Andy went super plain and got a dish of French Vanilla with whipped cream and a cherry. I was a bit surprised at that when there were so many options for friend ice cream. They even had a fruity pebbles one and I would have thought that Andy would have chosen that.

In the afternoon I rode with my parents to the airport so that I could take their car back home. They’re off to Florida where they will meet up with my sister and her husband. I hope that they have a nice trip.

sword

I’ve been working on a 28 hour print which finished up while I was at work tonight. What is very cool about my 3D printer is that it has a camera inside and with it I can see the whole print as it happens. So I was able to check in as it happened. What I printed was a sword for Andy, the sword is called Riptide and it is the sword that Percy Jackson uses. I like that the family has enjoyed watching the Percy Jackson show on Disney Plus. We watched the whole show together and it was really fun to do. Andy has wanted as sword and Riptide was the one that they decided upon.

When I got back from the airport Andy asked if they could walk up and get Boba. Andy has wanted to do this on their own ever since getting a phone. My parents gave them $10 so Andy used that and some of their own money to go up and get boba for themselves, Allison and Eva. We asked Andy to ask Eva is she wanted to go too but she did not. So, we let Andy go and do this on their own. Andy walked up and ordered 3 Boba drinks and brought them back. Before I went to work I asked Andy how much they had spent. Andy spent $23. So I gave Andy $20 and told them how much I was proud of how generous they were.

This afternoon my Aunt and Uncle contacted Allison and let her know that they were up this way and wanted to know if we wanted to meet them at Bliss for some ice cream. they were on their way down to a hotel in Providence. While it has changed names over the years this hotel was one where my grandparents stayed on their honeymoon. My aunt had a photo of the receipt and their 2 night stay was $8.75 a night and the total was $17.50 with no tax. My grandparents went there for their 50th anniversary and the tax was almost more than their first stay there. Crazy.

ice cream sundae

We each got some decent sized ice cream sundaes and that was dinner for me. I got a cookie sundae with strawberries and Oreo ice cream. This was huge and almost finished it, luckily Andy was there to eat up what was left. They offered to finish Allison’s as well but we figured that Andy did not need a major stomach ache for eating several ice cream sundaes. It was really nice to see my aunt and Uncle. We took a photo at the new big mural out front. We can cross off ice cream at Bliss as one of our Christmas traditions completed.
