Yesterday was my first Scooper Bowl! A recap.

Brigham’s - Caramel Brownie Light: Tasty, caramelly, creamy, good. A little to melty, but still.
Brigham’s - Dice-Kream: Fan-friggin-tastic. Choco-covered peanuts, salt on chocolate flavor is great.
Cold Stone Creamery - Shock-A-Cone: Unremarkable.
Cold Stone Creamery - Chocolate Devotion: Either this is gross or I’ve been eating too fast.
Breyers - Strawberry: A familiar flavor, a favorite of my dad, delicious. The Chocolate Devotion must have been gross.
Breyers - Oreo Cookies & Cream: This is no different than any other oreo ice cream. A mistake.
Ben & Jerry’s - Cherry Garcia: I’ve never had this before and love cherry, but this is a low point. Starting to feel sick, craving something non-dairy.
Élan - Non-fat Black Raspberry: Picking a non-fat doesn’t count as a break. Next!
Haagen Das - Raspberry Sorbet: Oh man this is good. Light, flavorful. Too bad they had no coconut pineapple left.
Garelick Farms - Maine Wild Blueberry: Last one - a solid flavor to end on. I’m not too excited by it because I’m preoccupied by the need to puke all this up.

Ten may seem like a lot of ice cream to the objective reader but you have to put it in context of the overall mania of the event. There were scads of little kids putting me to shame, carrying around giant towers of cups. I hear a tall skinny guy say, “When you hit twenty, you just have to stop, no matter what.” I agree.
