Oy… the house is full of ice cream.. really, really good ice cream !. Both Hannah and Ian are now working at Ben and Jerry’s.. as are Kevin and Nate.. between all of them our freezers are literally overflowing with ice cream. The company gives each employee three pints every day to take home.. I think at this point we have more than 30 pints of the stuff stuffed in every freezable place in the house.. Flavors I’ve never imagined possible.. things with bits of pretzels, chocolate covered potato chips.. flavors named after comedians, politicians, musicians, animals, even after other deserts

And.. what’s harder still is this stuff is irresistible. I don’t even like sweets that miuch and I can’t resist a spoon or so of this stuff every time I walk by a freezer .. and we have three freezers !

They say everyone who works at B&J’s gets the ‘Ben Ten’ when they start.. the extra ten pounds from eating their own wares… (all respects to friend Ben who’s looking pretty svelte these days (you reading this ? )  But I gotta say it’s probably worth it.  The kids absolutely love working there . It’s good to see that the culture that Ben and Jerry established there lives on even though the place is now owned by a large corporation.. They say it’s like summer camp !. Everyone enjoys the people, the work.. and of course the perks..

Like chocolate coverd macademia ice cream … strowberry cheeskace, americone dream, pistachio, chubby hubby, cherry garcia… all that I can see from where I now sit..

I won’t do it.. no I won’t go over there.. I won’t I won’t … I wo……..

nite all, nite sam
