The Creamery is a common stop in scavenger hunts that happen throughout the year for Penn State groups. They come in, write down ice cream flavors, take pictures, make a lot of noise and then never buy anything. On Monday, we were pretty sure it was that time of year again when huge groups of boys kept coming in and writing things down and taking absurd pictures. The one guy took a picture with a sausage and a bottle of milk. I made strange faces at these boys from behind the register and they laughed some more and continued to take pictures. Finally the boys wanted to check out, but checking out consisted of buying sausage and then asking to take a picture of me and my fellow employees. We don't usually have people ask to take our pictures they usually just want us to hold the ice cream for them and they take a picture of that, so this was a weird experience. We of course had to ask why and they said they were doing a project for CAS 100. Huh. So I, along with three of my other employees, will be part of a CAS 100 presentation. Super.
In other news, Strawberry Cheesecake isn't in three gallons anymore, crazy! Some flavors of note are Orange Vanilla Sundae (essentially a creamcicle in ice cream) and Black Cow (vanilla ice cream with rootbeer sherbet swirl). You should probably go try them and give me a better opinion on them. I hear Black Cow is a favorite. Sounds gross to me. They're both pretty easy to scoop to, so I won't be upset if you come in on say Saturday Night between 6-11 or Monday between 6-10 and ordered it!
I might have to try this Black Cow, it sounds really good. This week's theme is like...ice cream float flavors haha. I haven't been to the creamery in a while =[ We had to do a scavenger hunt at the beginning of the year for this one club and I felt bad because we had to go to five guys and take a picture with them and they just kinda stared at us. I guess it's funny the first time but after that they get sick of it, haha. Nice post
ReplyDeleteHaha, that's an interesting story. And I concur with Wendi, I haven't been to the Creamery in a while. I still have to stop in sometime haha
ReplyDeleteBut did they say, "Say Cheese" when the took your photo? Because *that* would have been awesome.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll be trying Black Cow anytime soon, but it has been a while since I've been to the Creamery...
ReplyDeleteI havent been to the Creamery in so long. I also gave up Ice Cream for lent, so right now, the Creamery is the source of all evil on campus. Maybe I will come in soon and take a picture with a bag of chips or a tub of yogurt or something.
