In celebration of its 30th birthday, today is FREE CONE DAY at Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops (or as I like to call them, Crack Dens) so plan accordingly. Memphis-area stores that are participating include:

• Downtown at Peabody Place and Third
• East Memphis behind Houston’s on Popular
• Germantown at the Village Shops of Forest Hill

I ate so much Cherry Garcia when I was pregnant I’m surprised Elijah wasn’t born with a stem growing out of the top of his head. Or a scruffy grey beard. But I can also HIGHLY recommend the One Cheesecake Brownie because OMG are you kidding me? Eat ice cream AND help fight world AIDS? Oh, I am SO there. But I’m thinking just to be adventurous, I might actually try Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream.
