I’m back from my week off and do I have something exciting to share with you.
Alec Balwin you so crazy
Last week it was announced that Ben and Jerry’s were going to release their new flavor of ice cream Schweddy Balls, and let me tell you boys and girls I was excited. Schweddy Balls are based on a famous Saturday Night Live sketch featuring Alec Baldwin. The skit implies that Peter Schweddy’s balls might be more then just a holiday rum ball. Yes the whole situation is immature and anyone that thinks such a thing is a child, but darn it sometimes you gotta love a good dick joke. I of course being above it all decided to take the best course of action and not only tell everyone I knew of the ice cream but call my local Ben and Jerry’s multiple times to find out when the ice cream in question is coming out.
no this isn't a prank call I just want ice cream
Good news everybody the ice cream came out Thursday and I being the writing professional that will jump into the danger zone for my loyal readers have tried Schweddy Balls.
So let me describe my encounter with Schweddy Balls and the heroic tale of love, passion, and the willpower to resist the urge to make vulgar statements the whole time.
After many uncomfortable calls to my local ice cream shop I find out Schweddy Balls are due to arrive Thursday. I wait until Thursday afternoon so as not to look to eager and waltz into Ben and Jerry’s to retrieve said ice cream.I return home and partake of Schweddy Balls with a few close friends and my loving husband. I then ask everyone their opinion and thoughts of Schweddy Balls.
"look Chard it's just ice cream, put your clothes back on"
Bet and I both are surprised Schweddy balls doesn’t have any cinnamon or other spices in the ice cream. We both assumed it would have a traditional holiday spice to it.
Chard prefers the chocolate balls to the malt balls in the ice cream.
My husband reacts to the rum flavor and mentions the desert having a “kick”
Most everyone else didn’t have a strong opinion either way and were a little disappointed.
Out of everyone I seemed to like it the best and even mentioned having the ice cream again.
Overall the ice cream (rum flavored with chocolate and malt balls) seemed to merely be “ok” with the only strong agreement is not to take it to any church fuction.
So in conclusion what can be said for Schweddy Balls? Is it that good of an ice cream or just a good excuse for me to let out my Inner Frat Boy? I think we all know the answer.
