National Root Beer Float Day






In observation of National Root Beer Float Day… 

I think it’s appropriate to discuss the best way to make a root beer float.

We all know the ingredients are Root Beer and Vanilla Ice cream, but how do you make yours?

Do you add the root beer to the glass and then add in your scoops of delicious vanilla ice cream?  Creating the plop… plop… type foam … that you slip through the straw.

Or … you first add the yummy vanilla ice cream and slowly pour the rich brown root beer over the ice cream creating a very large foam that you eat off the spoon?

Some I have heard stir theirs after either way of making it….

And the ice cream… do you have a favorite brand or type of vanilla ice cream?   Breyers... Ben & Jerry’s… Haagen Dazs… Blue Bell…

What about the root beer???  Do you have a favorite… there are several out there! A & W… MUG… DADS… ICB…  Shasta… ????

What every your favorite root beer is, and what every way you add your favorite vanilla ice cream… 

Enjoy todays National Quirky holiday….

Root Beer Float Day!

What you may not have known about the Month of May

Everyone knows that May is known for Cinco de Mayo, Mother's Day 
and Memorial day, 

BUT did you know..... 





According to the early Roman calendar, May was the third month. Later, the ancient Romans used January as the first month and therefore, became the fifth month and it always had 31 days. 

May was first named for Maia, the Roman goddess of spring and growth. In the North Temperate Zone, may is one of the most beautiful months of the year. Usually, the snow and ice are gone by this time but the hot temperature hasn't arrived yet. 

In May, the first garden begins to sprout and the wild flowers start to bloom and the trees and grasses turn green. Wild flowers such as forsythia, dogwood, violets, and jack-in-the-box bloom and many birds build their nests to sit on the eggs that will soon hatch.
