Today was a great day for a sweet summer treat! Blue Bell and KLTY radio had a partnership to collect fans and food for the Christian Community Action center of Lewisville. In exchange for these donated items, the Blue Bell cold storage distribution center offered "tours" and a single serve snack. When I heard of this fun adventure, only an hour remained in the project. I didn't have to twist Brooke or Steven's arm, since they were already considering a trip to Tappys yogurt (sorry, but free Blue Bell wins!). We dashed away for a little Wednesday night adventure with canned food in tow. The "tour" consisted of being allowed to venture into the freezer, which is 20 degrees below zero...in your street clothes designed for 100+ degree temperatures! Obviously, it took only a matter of seconds before the chill began to set in!
Oh, yes! That is half-gallon buckets of ice cream stacked floor to ceiling! I was tempted to see if anyone noticed me just grabbing a carton or two.
Next, on the "tour" was the opportunity to get in an empty ice cream truck. "What you see, is what you get." The truck had not been turned on in hours, so it was cool, but not cold--and without ice cream, it didn't look much different than an ambulance.
Finally, the highlight of the event--ice cream!
We had a "Blue Bell country day"!
