ONE REASON TO OPPOSE TEXAS SECESSION: Speaking of food, you know what I miss from the South? Blue Bell Ice Cream. Sure, you can get serviceable ice cream here, and there's always the "upscale" stuff, though that frequently gets a tad frouffy for my taste. Just look at the flavors. Among the ones I miss most? Strawberries and Homemade Vanilla and Peaches and Homemade Vanilla, both of which take chunks of fresh fruit and mix them into the ice cream, and Banana Pudding, with real vanilla wafers mixed in. Sadly, Blue Bell's territory doesn't come anywhere close to the current location, but on a lazy summer day like today, I wish I could just scoop up a dish.
