Great Ice cream

With the good weather coming, more and more people are going to start buying ice cream whether it be from places like Dairy Queen (best blizzards) or from local stores. I often go to these places, but sometimes I like to get creative. the Marble Slab Creamery is the absolute best place to buy good ice cream for many reasons. They have 47 high quality flavors from coffee to Peanut Butter (my personal favorite is birthday cake), for everyones taste preferences. The best part is the toppings available. You can get pop rockets, marshmallows, Skor  bits and more mixed into your ice cream (a total of 31 available toppings to choose from). You can even buy cakes or tubs of your favorite flavors! They also sell milkshakes and low fat yogurt for those of you who like that kind of stuff. Their ice cream is a little bit pricey, but I can tell you that it is worth it.

New treat at Starbucks!

I find it very hard to believe that there is anyone who does not like cake. Starbucks now has cake balls on a stick, and they are to die for. They are essentially balls of half baked cake dipped in a thick layer of icing with toppings. They are great with coffee or as a quick eat. There are three kinds: birthday cake (<- to the left), Tiramisu (with a realistic coffee bean on top) and rocky road (which I have not yet tried). The birthday cake is my personal favorite. I buy one once a week, and only for 1.75 dollars each (and two for three dollars)! Also, for something new to try, get a cocoa cappuccino next time you go.

Lemonade Mouth

Lemonade Mouth is a cool new musical type movie, based on the novel written by Mark Peter Hughes. The storyline is great, although occasionally corny (which is to be expected from a Disney movie). What I like most about it is the music. It's fresh and upbeat, they make you think (nothing like high school musical). Brigit Mendler sings for the majority of the songs, while Hayley Kiyoko usualy sings back-up. Naomi Scott  also does some back-up, featuring in one song. Lastly Adam Hicks, who does the rapping for four of the songs. Chris Brochu does two songs, but I don't like them all that much mainly because they are shallow and in your face.
