Frosties

Let it be known that Wendy's Frosties are difficult to eat (drink?) with a straw. After so much struggle and after so many inuendos made, a big question remained: Why does the employee hand out spoons AND straws through the drive through window?

I concluded the reason is because somebody was capable of sucking the Frosty through a straw. Somebody with really strong cheek muscles. Somebody who was practiced and skilled in the art. Somebody who thought the spoon was for wussies.

Tera and I are quite a boring duo. She with her love of things like knitting and Disney Channel and I a fascination with things like crocheting and argyle socks, we can make almost anything boring. Normally we have Bekah, a spitfire click-your-boot-heels-on-the-floor-you're-so-excited kind of girl, to balance this dynamically boring duo. But it was just Tera and I.

What I was thinking as we pulled through the drive-thru at Wendy's was that I was driving and would need to drink the Frosty with a straw. How else do you eat (drink?) one with only one hand and while driving?

Upon sucking the chocolate ice-cream texture Frosty about 30% through the straw, I sat back in exhaustion exclaiming, "It's so difficult!"

"Thaaaat's what she said."

My head snapped over to Tera, who was smiling. And then the inuendo's and Michael Scott-isms came full force.

After all the commotion settled down, Tera said, "I really need to watch The Office." (She has never seen it before.)

Pretty impressive moment for a couple of boring girls.

One last thing: sometimes the best way to eat a Frosty through a straw is to wait a little while for it to melt and then suck, cheek muscle force free. That is what I have learned. And spoons are for wussies.

And also, Tera isn't as boring as she thinks.
