Today, I have this strange craving for a Shamrock Shake. I've not had one in many, many years... so I'm not sure what has sparked this craving.

I don't even know if I can get one in this area.

I used to love these things as a kid. I don't know if it was the green-ness of the milkshake, or the minty coolness. I just remember getting these things every March.

When I was in high school and working at the local A & W, we offered a flavor-of-the-month milkshake. March was always our mint shake month, and I remember the first time I tried one with the chocolate button and the mint button both pressed halfway... watching the brownish-green shake fill the paper cup as I stepped on the feed pedal.

That one tasted much better than it looked! =^)

The A & W, the shake machine, are both long gone... as are the Shamrock shakes that inspired them (for the most part).

I wonder if anyone around here is offering them. Might be worth a field trip tonight!
