DAIRY QUEEN DILLY BARS 🍦

Gang bangers get hot too!

LAS VEGAS, N.M. (AP) – A northern New Mexico man is facing charges after he was accused of committing a cold crime on a hot day: an ice cream heist.

Wait an minute, not drugs, money, jewelry, ice cream? Was it for the gang summer outing or was he going to jack an ice cream truck too?

The Las Vegas Optic in New Mexico reports authorities say 31-year-old Paul Trujillo was arrested last week…

The Fawn

  The writer’s farm has welcomed a new arrival. A three-week-old fawn is making daily appearances with its mother, who is busy teaching him about his forested environment. Mom: The tall things you see are trees, dear, the short things are shrubs or flowers. Fawn: “What’s to eat?” Mom: “It’s at your feet, all around; the green fields of grass, and twigs.” Fawn: “There’s no Dairy Queen?” Mom: “No, this is a rural area.” Fawn: “I was hoping for a Dilly Bar. I’ve been cooped up, you know.” Mom: “Right now you have more important things to think about. You are still wobbly. I want you to avoid the raccoon holes and stumbling into the fence.” Fawn: “What’s a fence?” Mom: “It keeps some things in and some things out.” Fawn: “Are we kept in or out?” Mom: “We’re kept in.” Fawn: “That means I’ll never get my Dilly Bar.” Mom: “You can get over the fence by jumping.” Fawn: “I’m still wobbly.” Mom: “I’ll teach you how, dear. But you’ll have to beware of the cars.” Fawn: “What are they?” Mom: “They are noisy, reckless and have an odor.” Fawn: “What do they do?” Mom: “They carry people.” Fawn: “What are people?” Mom: “They are noisy, reckless and have an odor.” Fawn: “I’m rethinking going for the Dilly Bar.” Mom: “Well we do have to be careful, dear.” Fawn: “What else do I have to watch out for?” Mom: “Bears, birds, snakes, bobcats, squirrels, rabbits and your father.” Fawn: “Do I have anyone to have fun with?” Mom: “Bears, birds, snakes, bobcats, squirrels, rabbits and your father.” Fawn: “I don’t understand.” Mom: “Nobody does, dear.” Fawn: “Why do you keep calling me deer? I know I’m a deer.” Mom. “I’m calling you ‘dear’; it’s a word of affection that sounds the same.” Fawn: “This is getting confusing.” Mom: “There are lots of words in nature that sound the same. Faux for fox, bare for bear, flour for flower, even dough for doe.” Fawn: “Do I have to go to school to learn all this?” Mom: “No. Your father and I will teach you.” Fawn: “That’s a relief. I don’t have a backpack.” Mom: “We’ll provide everything you need.” Fawn: “Do I get a smart phone?” Mom: “No, but you get blackberries, field oats, and sugar leaves. Fawn: “This means no emails, no texting, and no OMGPOP games?” Mom: “I’m afraid so.” Fawn: “Boy. How did I get into this?” Mom: “Your father will tell you that, sweetheart, when you are older.”

New York City just got its first Dairy Queen folks! And the lucky borough that landed it... Staten Island. 

This might not seem like a big deal to those of you living outside NYC, but this city's closest Dairy Queen was out in New Jersey.

Now, I can take a free trip on the Staten Island Ferry...

enjoy the beautiful views from the boat...

then step off the ferry at Saint George Terminal and find Dairy Queen waiting for me just a few feet away. Awesome.

And it appears to be a full-service DQ too. I ordered my favorite item from the menu - the Chicken Strip Basket. 

It comes with fries, buttered toast and a drink. And my dipping sauce of choice is the white gravy.

Afterwards, I ordered an Oreo Blizzard.

Heck, if I lived a little closer, I would have brought some Dilly Bars home for my son and I.
