This blizzard is going to kill every human being it touches. What with its freezing-wind-whipping and snow-flake-fallery, children will be banned from school, adults banned from work and if one even thinks about stepping outside – death will be waiting.
That’s the message I received from highly-ranked news sources. Fear, fear and more fear.
But I refuse to live in fear and will give the weather a royal butt-kicking. Whatever do you mean? I mean I’m ready to take on this blizzard, Dairy Queen style.
For those of you who aren’t lucky enough to know already, I am a former employee of Dairy Queen.
Go ahead, salivate.
Our serving – soft. Our cone – curly. Our blizzards – thick enough to stand upside down. That’s just how we do at DQ. Never apologizing for the softness of our serves and always leaving people with a smile. Especially when it came to our number #1 sellers – the Blizzard, we were fast, efficient and blended with an awesomeness that would bring most non-believers to their knees. “Could this creamy/candy/blended delight be real?” It is. It’s as real as the the grim reaper’s frost-bitten-phalanges.
My favorite Blizzard of all time was this (created by yours truly):
- Fill the bottom half of a medium cup with twist ice cream
- Add 2 scoops of cookie dough (it has to be fresh, not the bottom of the box crumbles)
- Add 1 scoop of Oreo cookie
- Fill the rest of the cup with vanilla ice cream
- Blend to perfection
I can taste it now. It’s so good that I would even brave the real blizzard for a real tasty Blizzard as my mid-afternoon snack. Who’s with me?
Since most of us are either shut-in alone with our internets or avoiding the stir-crazy kids with whom we are shut-in, use this time to think fondly of Blizzards.
What is your favorite Blizzard?
Would you travel through the real blizzard for a real tasty Blizzard?
Tell me. I’m looking out my window wishing snowflakes were ice cream. Hurry. I need a distraction before I start licking the window.
Theriouthly.
