frozen custard

have you ever had frozen custard? it is oh so good. we have a favorite place that we go to for "butterburgers" and custard (i always always get mint oreo, it is my favorite), CULVER's. frozen custard is way more creamy than ice cream, and the butterburger has become The Burger for me.

well, a new place opened up awhile back, off 1604. it is called freddy's frozen custard. and we finally got around to trying it this past weekend, to see how it compared to culver's. it Did Not (compare, that is). at all! i mean, it was alright, not horrible, but i don't feel the need to ever go again. the burger just wasn't right. and, MINT WASN'T EVEN AN OPTION. disappointment. so we shared a banana peanut butter cup concrete, and it was ok except for that p.b. currently makes me think: salmonella. yikes.

moral of the story, don't mess with the best:

toothpaste warning

i really like to read product reviews. sometimes it makes me uncomfortable to purchase anything without reading some solid reviews on it. even little things like deodorant or bar soap. anyhow... i've been using this toothpaste...

and it kinda bugged that it is pretty much impossible to keep the weird little flip top lid clean for more than a few days at a time, because the paste goops all over (eww!). and i thought, hmm i wonder if other people hate the lid too. so i checked out some reviews, what i found out was far WORSE! this toothpaste uses a kind of fluoride that is KNOWN to cause stains and brown your teeth. what the?!?! i'm bummed with crest, i always thought they were the best tasting brand. btw, their pro health rinse mouthwash supposedly stains even worse than the paste, so i don't recommend either!
