“Moo’s asleep,” I said as I returned to the living room.
The Mister asked me, “Are there any more of those sleepy cows?”
I raised my eyebrows and considered all the sleepy cows I know. I almost told him Cowy was sleepin, too…
Sassy and I shared a look of confusion before turning back to him, “What?!?”
“The ice cream sammich things.”
“Skinny Cows!” we shouted.
But now we shall call them Sleepy Cows.

“Sleepy Cows” I love that. I get those from our local soft serve place. I may just have to start calling them sleepy cows. I have to limit myself to one a night, because I could eat the entire box of six.

Way too many carbs – and low fat is controversial – but boy the marketing push! One of those has more than my carb limit for a day. Just call something ‘skinny’ and logic goes out the window.

Well, you hafta! Indubitably.
[That is the first time I made use of the word Indubitably. For the record, you realize. Also for the record, I’d be lost without spellcheck on that one!]

I’ve never understood why we have both undoubtedly and indubitably, but I will admit indubitably sounds better somehow 🙂
Obviously your spelling and word choice has earned you a Sleepy Cow — chocolate or vanilla?

Isn’t it Sylvester the Cat who lisps “indubitably”
so valiantly, if soggily?
Chocolate, please!

Maybe? Probably? I remember the gophers said it a lot, and I think Daffy Duck did, too. It’s a great word. I remember Sylvester with his Sufferin Succotash. Man, I miss those. We’ve got some discs around here somewhere!

I’ve never seen the chocolate peanut butter ones! He-Man buys our Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches at Costco if there was a chocolate peanut butter choice he’d buy that over all else!
Maybe you can find the Cookies & Cream ones somewhere nearby.

So what exactly is that? Cream between biscuits or something like that.

More or less. It’s vanilla or chocolate ice cream between two soft biscuits, as you’d say. They’re frozen treats.

Too funny. Of course I have no idea what a Skinny Cow ice cream sammich is. To me the best ice cream sammich is a Klondike. Yum- Ice cream. I even like those old timey ones. Ice Cream
LikeLiked by 1 person
We eat Klondike bars too 🙂 But I personally love ice cream sammiches.
These are made lowfat or with yogurt or somethin. We love them. We can’t tell you why or if they’re actually better for you, but then, we ate chicken-flavored vegetable patties for years without knowing they were veggie…

Confession. I like to make chocolate peanut butter brownies. Take two of them stick a big scoop of chocolate mint ice cream between them and smother them with hot fudge. Terrible I know. Of course I haven’t done that in a year.
