Ice cream? It looks like a Chinese food container…

Hand-packed ice cream. In my high school days, I worked in a drug store. This was at a time (more than 50 years ago) when so many of the drug stores had a soda fountain. Many times someone would ask for a pint of whatever flavor, and it was my job to scoop it out and pack it in an unlabeled pint container.

Now, if he hadn’t distracted her….

Does this mean we’ll be having mud pies al la mode?

Can’t she just make some mud pies to go with the ice cream?

Charlie is such a gentleman.

Patty fell right into the chocolate syrup. What luck!

That brings back memories. Going to the local grocery store and getting a pint of ice cream in a box.

nowadays it would’ve happened because she was on her phone

Thank you for your kindness and consideration, Chuck.

Charlie warns her and Patty looks away from what he warned her about. Not a very gifted child.

Watch the step. It’s a doozy.

Look out for the mud too.
