Sometimes, ice cream comes in single serving sizes - brands like Ben & Jerry's and Talenti*

* Yes, I know it is Gelato but close enough.

So, 1 pint?

That's correct!

Talenti Mediterranean Mint is the best! I am embarrassed how many Talenti "food storage containers" I have amassed.

You only buy it for the container.

I wait for it to go on sale so I can get some of those food storage containers.

Why yes, I did eat tonight's serving of ice cream last night. Yes, I ate the whole thing.

The other night I really wanted a snack, had nothing in the house, so I made a quarter of a cookie recipe- 6 cookies that I told myself would be my snack for 2 days. The two days were 8:00-8:10 pm that night and 7:00-7:10 am the next morning.

Yep, it's a real chore to have to empty those things.

Sounds about right.

Chinese spy balloon had been directly overhead for 30 minutes. It keeps going back and forth. And now it looks like it’s been shot down.

Hah. My parents are on the coast of SC and keep sending me pictures of the balloon as a spec in the background and their middle fingers in the foreground.

This thing had a bit of a carnival atmosphere to it don't ya think? "Step right up, pop a balloon and win a stuffed bear for the little lady!"

We were outside. Had the telescope already out for the green comet. About ten minutes after the balloon passed over the house one boom and then a second boom. Looks like they were just waiting for it to clear the water. Two fighter jets had been circling it for an hour. I’m pretty sure the balloon survived. It looked like it was picking up steam. The equipment package definitely did not make it.

Lots of folks here in Asheville posted their pics of it.

RIP weird distraction of the week

Yeah. This is what I got from Pawleys:

Some people on the beach, saw the air go out of a balloon. Right after I took that picture three fighters came screaming across the sky and before we knew it, it was gone.

I'm sending my love down the well.

“Really don't mind if you sit this one out
My words but a whisper your deafness a shout
I may make you feel but I can't make you think
Your sperm's in the gutter, your love's in the sink
So you ride yourselves over the fields and
You make all your animal deals and
Your wise men don't know how it feels
To be thick as a brick”

— Gerald "Little Milton" Bostock (put to music by Jethro Tull)
