Why didn't I think of that?

This weekend I made a wonderful discovery at my local 7-11 store----ALUMINUM STRAWS! That's right, a straw made out of aluminum.  It's a Slurpee straw, costs $.99, and it works wonders in a nice frosty diet coke.  Keeps the nectar of the gods nice and cold on a very hot summer day.  These straws come in various bright colors and are sure to sell out (I noticed that people are selling them on ebay) so don't delay, get yours today!  

I also discovered a new Haagen-Daz ice cream flavor in the "five" line.  This line of ice cream only has five ingredients (milk, cream, sugar, eggs, brown sugar) and is all natural.  They have some interesting flavors, but the one that immediately caught my eye is Brown Sugar.  I'm not much of an ice cream fan, but I just had to try brown sugar flavored ice cream--what a mistake that was.  I think I am hooked.

That's it for now...just thought I would share some of my recent discoveries.  Enjoy!
