Snowballs

Tonight, the kids ate fantastic dinners. Both ate grilled chicken strips, DJ pounded down coocumber (cucumber) and brah-key (broccoli) while Elektra ate lots of broccoli.

As a treat, we took them to the local snowball stand called Queen of Ice (owned by Palmisanos) where a couple of our autocross friends work.

Having already tried Skylight (a standard child favorite - and not just my children!), I gave DJ a choice between raspberry, strawberry, and watermelon. He asked for raspberry, which is also one of Daddy's favorites. So it worked out that both parents got raspberry, and both children pounded it! Elektra kept saying "Have some?" and DJ would ask politely (when prompted), "May I have some more snowball?"

The first time we took them to the snowball stand, DJ took to it pretty quickly, but Elektra didn't really want it. This time, both children loved it.

Hooray for summer snowballs!
