Best Damn Ice Cream/Worst Damn First Date -JustJoJan "Chewy"

Honeybud

Chewy, gooey, heavenly delight! I had never tasted anything finer than the combination of lavender and honeycomb ice cream on my tongue. How Blacksmith Ice Cream Co. on main street in Bountiful, Utah had concocted this combination, I'll never know, but bless them for it. Bless them well. 

I lifted each tiny spoonful to my lips, savoring each bite with a full held breath, closing my eyes as not to be distracted. That was where I was at this point on this date. Because my ice cream had far more taste and was far more deserving of my attention than my date did. That Honeybud ice cream was the only saving factor of a date that would go no farther than this. 

We had been sitting outside at a table and chairs in the very late evening, cars driving up and down main street, and that was where the date had taken its ugly turn. A car had whizzed by, a little faster than it should, and my date commented something to the effect, "And they wonder why they get targeted and shot like they do." 

​A racist remark.

I heard nothing more he said from that point on. His voice became like that of the teacher from the Charlie Brown cartoon. What more did I need to know? I had learned enough. 

What I absolutely do know is that lavender and honeycomb is chewy, creamy, tasty, and delightful! It is my favorite flavor they serve, though you cannot go wrong at all with any of their flavors. Everything is chef's kiss! Yes, chef's kiss! 

I have been back to Blacksmiths Ice Cream Co. many times after this incident.  Definitely give it a try. Just don't take a date with you...THAT you never know what you'll end up with.
