Evolution of the Big Mountain

Haven't done a post in quite a while, but I thought this outing deserved its own special post. In celebration of Brianna's birthday, she chose to go eat some ice cream at Big Dip. She would settle for no less than the Big Mountain. See below for the making, and breaking, of the BM.

 

The making: spread a layer of corn flakes for the foundation of the BM. Apply liberal amounts of whipped cream, mousse, and whatever else tastes fluffy and delicious.

 

Start layering the perfectly formed ice cream scoops.

 

Add more layers...

And more layers...

 

And more layers. Top with more whipped cream and a strawberry, and stick some ice cream sandwiches in the side for good measure.

 

Get ready. (Isaac would not cooperate and sit in his chair until he saw the BM. Then wild horses couldn't keep him out of his chair. He's seen here now getting in his chair, assembling his own tray, and readying the ice cream cup in anticipation)

The finished masterpiece. 17 scoops in all.

 

The decimation of the BM and the aftershock.

And another satisfied customer, or two. Or one really satisfied customer and another that is in an ice cream induced coma.

 

Thanks for having a birthday Brianna!

The end.
