Last week, I wrote about my quest for the delicious gooeyness of the ideal hot fudge sundae. Then I realized it is like finding a unicorn at the end of a rainbow. Impossible. It seems that ice cream destinations have lost their way and are outwardly trying to ruin...

Somehow my original blog got deleted. It disappeared and boy, am I pissed. How do I recreate the masterpiece of wit that I expressed this morning? Well, here goes. Ice cream places should be the one destination that should not bring one stress. However, this past...
