My husband makes our ice cream, and I don't usually eat it, but every
once in a while I get the urge for a cone from the local cheese
factory and we'll make the 10 minute drive there to get one. I don't
care if I have to pay an extra 50 or 75 cents for a sugar cone if I'm
only doing it twice a year.
