... that Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was released, and if you don't own a copy, what's wrong with you? Anyway, Friday memeage from friday5.org again for the heck of it.
1. What’s your favorite goody at your favorite bakery?
Actually my favourite bakery closed several years ago, but back when I went there they made this wonderful garlic bread loaf that was just the way I love my garlic bread: Slightly crunchy on the outside, but moist and chewy on the inside.
2. Someone’s visiting from out of town and craves something sweet: Where do you take him or her for an experience he or she can’t get at home?
Hmmm. Normally I get my ice cream fix at Dairy Queen, and all the "local" ice creameries I've been to all use Toft's ice cream. Even though I've never had it myself, I'd have them try the gelato at The Original Gino's Pizza, a local pizza chain that has a well-earned reputation as the best local pizzeria.
3. What’s your favorite order at your favorite ice creamery?
Large cherry malt, heavy on the malt powder, from Dairy Queen. I always used to get it at the truck stop we'd pass when my father took me to and from Antioch back in the day.
4. Oh no! You forgot to save room for dessert! What dessert item on the menu will you order anyway, because you can’t resist?
"On the menu" suggests a sit-down restaurant to me, and the only restaurant I regularly order dessert at is TGI Friday's, so let's say Oreo Madness.
5. You’ve got a craving for sweets, but it’s so late at night that only the corner convenience store is open. What do you get?
Given that I have a 24-hour grocery and a 24-hour Meijer I can drive to in less than five minutes, I don't think I'd ever be forced to go to a convenience store, but for the sake of argument, either a chocolate chip ice cream cookie sandwich if they had them, or a 3 Musketeers bar if they didn't.
