This past weekend I took a little trip with the dog and Mini Whipped to visit various friends in Michigan. The baby was asleep in the back seat and the dog snoozing on my lap as I cruised down Lake Michigan Drive heading towards Grand Rapids. A Dairy Queen loomed ahead. A Dairy Queen with a drive-through. I used my will power and drove on past. I lost my will power and circled back. They offered me a Pup Cup. I assumed it was water for the dog and declined. Upon handing my Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard to me they asked, “Are you sure he wouldn’t like a little ice cream? It’s free.”
Okay.
A small cup of vanilla ice cream was handed through the window. Just then, Nigel stirred, sniffed and started licking. I saw a thought bubble form above his furry little head…. “Jackpot.”

Love anything “drive thru” now that I’m a mom with little ones in the car. Everything should be drive thru…dry cleaners, supermarket, etc. Drive thru Dairy Queen…that is just too wonderful.

I’m originally from the Grand Rapids area (grew up in Muskegon, graduate of GVSU) and know exactly where you were! Love to here others enjoying my old city (now live on the East Coast).
