Having my first Shamrock Shake of the season

[gogreengowhite]

And all it took to get H to buy me one was getting my wisdom teeth pulled.

What are you up to today?

Thanks for reminding me! I'll treat myself to some this weekend.

I've never had one! I worked in an ice cream shop in college and I didn't like the way we made the soft shakes, so I just stick with ice cream in a blender. 

Speaking of shakes, though, MH just texted me to see if I want to go to Shake Shack tonight. Either that or barbecue. Decisions decisions.

Hmm, they would be a great birthday treat. Think I'll be going to MCDs after my birthday lunch. Today will be full of gluttony.

I have never had one either. I am afraid to try one because I think I will like them too much and want one every day. Burying my head in the sand......

Stopping on the way home!

OMG!!! I might need to go out and get one of these to eat with a Cadbury Crème Egg!!!!

(Also, sorry about your teeth. Hope you have good drugs and you feel better soon!)

Someone posted last year about some special "recipe" that you're supposed to ask for when you order these. I think it was something like mixing chocolate and Shamrock shakes together?

OOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!  This post gets better and better!!!  Really?!?!?!  Can I really ask for that?!?!?!

They've been out since the beginning of February here. I took a picture of the sign at my local McD's the day before the Super Bowl and sent it to my cousin who loooooves Shamrock Shakes.

I had one last weekend.  Soooo good!

I was thrilled to see and get one the other day. I had no idea they came so early. LOVE shamrock shakes!!!!

I hope you used a spoon or drank it straight from the cup. DON'T USE A STRAW AFTER HAVING YOUR WISDOM TEETH REMOVED.

It's a big no-no. It can make you bleed, A LOT.

Not that I would know, or anything. People make bad decisions while hopped up on painkillers, OK!??!?!

This is what I did. Tastes like a thin mint

Don't worry I used a spoon.

I went to hand my husband a spoon too and he jokingly said "hell no kid, just because you can't use a straw doesn't mean I can't eat this the right way"

I am currently sucking down my "chocolate shamrock," as the drive thru guy called it. I would like to rename it a "dirty leprechaun." It's delicious!

I've never had a shamrock shake. apparently this is something I need to change.

NOTED.

Yum! I haven't had one if forever. I am going to get one this weekend!

[orangeblossom]

I just had one thanks to this post. Yum!

Oh many, I'm buying a shake this weekend!

I bought Fitbits for DH and I (grammatically incorrect, right?) this afternoon. I was danced while cooking in effort to increase my number of steps.

Shamrock shakes are my favorite. I always get one every year and also an Eggnog shake in December. The chocolate shamrock sounds good, but I really want to lose 10 lbs, so I will stick to one and get the traditional.

Let me know how you like your fitbit!

I think it would be "DH & myself" in this case.

I need a shamrock shake!

I loved them as a kid and got one last year for the first time in years. I was a little disappointed. Mixing it with chocolate does sound amazing though...
