In which Emma discovers Snow Cones...

Just an amusing little snippet. I decided to brave the sugar and artificial colour and try a Snow Cone. I chose Granny Smith Apple flavour and was presented with a cone shaped cup of crushed ice with violent green cordial type stuff poured on it. It wasn't too bad, actually, though I'm surprised it didn't make me extremely hyper! Anyways, there was a little boy with his mother eating a violent pink snow cone.

Me: God, what is that?
Aelin: Bubble gum flavour. [turns to the boy] Is that bubble gum? Do you like that?
Boy: [smiles widely showing violent pink lips and tongue.]
Aelin: All the boys like bubble gum snow cones.
Older high school age boy: I like the orange ones.
Aelin: What are you? Some kind of deviant??!

Ah, gotta love the Americans...
