Clear Skies Vanilla is the only soft serve on the days we have no clouds and none can be seen floating on our horizons it is our seasonal choice that we wish could come all year long, could be as predictable as Pumpkin Spice in October or Eggnog in December even uncelebrated Baseball-Nut springs up at the right time. If only our skies could be the layers of a sundae-- a limited selection that always comes down to hot fudge, nuts, with a defrosted cherry on top-- then our decisions would be made for us we could never be wrong. Instead we deliver Icy Thundery Blueberry BubbleGumy hard serve on those days-- too complicated to understand too unwilling to shorten their title too difficult to be simply BlueGumTuesday because the sky, too mixed up to be...Blue. We raise our scoop for each serving to dish out-- with them we learn our taste what calms our nerves and how to evaporate the rain, because when we get to have those cloudless days we'll have the day to be flavorful.
