Sigh

There used to be a a authentic frozen custard place in McLean 
that went belly up a while back (not due to my lack of patronage). 
It was mentioned one year in the  Washingtonian's 50 worst list as 
the worst place to go while on a diet.
Not a day goes by that I don't mourn its passing :-(


I heard that a custard place was opening in oldtown but I haven't
been down there in a few months so I don't really know. 

Now you can't even find a Dairy Queen inside the Beltway.
In fact, I only know of two that survive. If anyone knows of others
I'd appreciate hearing about them.  The ones I'm aware of
are Aspen Hill on Georgia and somewhere in Fairfax.

Damn that frozen yogurt.

I'll drive miles for good soft ice cream!
