6-12" of Ice Cream

be, O, Cristin and i couldn't decide between Tokyo II (all-u-can-eat sushi) or Dow Thong (Thai) for our Queens Night Out. We flipped a coin for it (i somehow prefer one of the boys rolling a DnD die; it's more nerdy) and Dow Thong won out. It's a newish restaurant not far from our house. The food is better than our old Astoria joint, Thai Angel up on 30th Ave, and seems much more mom 'n' pop. Cristin got soup and green curry tofu, O got the duck, be got his usual shrimp pad sew ew and fried squid and i, my usual vegetable and tofu pad thai. Tonight i asked for dried crushed chiles like the batch i have from P's dad and it really made my dish even yummier! The chile wasn't nearly as good as P's dad's, but much better than some other Thai places i've had it in. Add to that 4 Thai iced teas and a brief, yet failed consideration to ordering the "warm chocolate volcano."

For dessert, we insane folks drove to Uncle Louie G's for mega ice cream overload: 1 medium cup of mint chocolate chip, 1 pint of cappuccino crunch, 1 quart of rocky road and 1 ultra-cup of 1/2 honeydew and 1/2 passion fruit Italian ice. Unfortunately some of the ice cream flavors had a case of freezerburn but luckily we also had a container of Breyer's Rocky Road and a pint of Ben and Jerry's Oatmeal Cookie Goodness.

As we were leaving ULG's, be exclaims, "...we're going to get 6-12" of ice cream tomorrow! Oh, i mean ice cream! Wait, what did i say?" and of course we play him for a while for that.
