I Love Coldstone Creamery Ice Cream

I was going to call this post 10 Reasons Why... But seriously, do I really need to explain why I love ice cream? Coldstone makes real, honest, butterfat-laden ice cream. Not that lowfat bullshit.

They also let you mix your choice of various toppings ranging from nuts to crazy shit like candy. I like toasted pecans, meself. They also offer shakes, malts and ice cream cakes.

Me, I go to an ice cream shop for ice cream, and lots of it. Then I put it on the hood of my car and photograph it, cuz what goes better together than Volvos and ice cream?

OK, maybe a BMW would. I am not a snob, I'm open to donations.

10 Reasons Why I Love Chipotle Mexican Grill

Is lunch at Chipotle worth the drive from River Falls to Hudson? Answer is yes! I love Chipotle, and here's why:

1. Fast.
2. Simple food with quality ingredients, made fresh.
3. Well-seasoned.
4. Guacamole! Fresh, bright green guac in generous portions. Never any of that brown crap you get elsewhere.
5. Cilantro! I'm a Fan. Chipotle has fresh chopped cilantro, and the friendly staff will liberally sprinkle your food with it upon request.
6. The folks at Chipotle know how to cook rice and beans. Sounds simple, but other establishments often have depressingly poor equivalents.
7. Fresh nacho chips made on-site
8. Fresh limes. I love fresh-squeezed limes in my Coke and on my food.
9. Generous portions. You can get a boat-sized Burrito Bowl big enough to feed a hungry guy who skipped dinner and breakfast.
10. An eclectic mix of great music ranging from blues, salsa, Latin pop, and world pop.

Bonus reason: Chipotle uses only hormone and antibiotic-free meat from family-owned farms.
