Snow Cone Lady

The kids (and apparently much of the city of Frisco) have an obsession with the legendary Snow Cone Lady. With over 50 flavors--Wedding Cake, Cinnamon, Tiger's Blood, Banana Split, and Rainbow to name a few--and the secret trick of topping the snow cones with cream, just about everyone agrees these are the best snow cones they've ever had. Madeline dreams of snow cones all winter long, asking me to tell her stories about what flavor we will order when we go again. We checked out her My Space and were there for her opening day. Thinking we might avoid the usual hour long lines because word of her opening wasn't out yet and it was an overcast day, we raced over as soon as school was out. Caleb and Sierra tried to stay warm (and thought they were providing entertainment while people waited) by dancing around in a shared jacket. One hour later, we finally had our snow cones. The look on their faces says it was worth it!
